Department Assistants

Department assistants provide pre- and post-award processing of all grants and contracts from outside sponsors. They review budgets for accuracy and insure that both University and funding agency/sponsor guidelines have been met on all proposal submissions. Department assistants also support Grant and Contract Officers in creating University accounts for sponsored programs; they serve as liaisons between departments, OSR, and Accounting Services for Research and Sponsored Programs (ASRSP) in maintaining such accounts.
