Office of Sponsored Projects Administration (OSPA)
The Office of Sponsored Projects Administration provides SoHE Faculty and Staff receiving awards assistance with the facilitation and use of those funds. This is a work in progress. We hope to have a wealth of resources for quick and efficient use.
During this time, if you have questions or need assistance with a project, grant, proposal, gift, budget, etc let us know by email or stopping in. Associate Dean Diane Barrett and staff would be happy to help.
A few resources are currently available for use:
