About Sponsored Projects Administration (SPA)
Departments and research units that submit proposals are assigned Sponsored Projects teams consisting of Contract and Grant Supervisor who supervises the Senior Contract and Grant Officers (non-federal team) and the Contract and Grant Officers (federal team). These teams work with the department or unit's contract and grant staff to review/submit proposals and manage awards. Please see our Staff by Departmental Assignment page to find the C&G officer assigned to your area.
