The Office of Research & Innovation is committed to sharing updates and reminders on its policies and procedures with the research community.

As a reminder, completed applications and completed COEUS records should be submitted to the OSP no later than three (3) business days before the sponsor due date to ensure that the Office of Research & Innovation – Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) can complete this review.

The Proposal Submission Deadline Procedure was established to increase the level of service that the Office of Research & Innovation (ORI) offers faculty and staff while reducing the financial and regulatory risk associated with proposal submissions. 

The procedure will give principal investigators as much time as possible for the proposal to be finalized while still allowing for a thorough administrative review at the college/school level as well as by the Office of Research.

This procedure will ensure the proposal is successfully submitted and that it is not returned without review from the sponsor.

To read more about this policy, please view the corresponding PowerPoint on the OSP SharePoint site.
