Sponsored Programs Administration
We manage the full lifecycle of sponsored research projects, from proposal submission through award closeout.
Our team helps researchers secure and administer grants, contracts and other external funding while ensuring compliance with sponsor requirements and institutional policies. We offer services to faculty and grant administrators to support their pursuit and management of external funding.
Our services include
- Assisting UNMC faculty and administrators complete external applications based on the policies and procedures of the university and extramural sponsor.
- Reviewing and approving proposal budgets and applications prior to submissions to outside sponsors.
- Negotiating final terms for government and non-profit grants, contracts, cooperative agreements, and subcontracts.
- Providing the official authorized signature authority of UNMC for sponsored program grants and contracts.
- Establishing accounts and set up budgets for all federal, non-profit, and for-profit awarded grants and contracts based on sponsor regulation.
- Processing budget revisions, no-cost extension requests, and grant transfers.
