The Grant Proposal Process

• Getting Started and Finding Funding
  The Office of Research Support assists in obtaining electronic registration with federal sponsors, with locating external and internal funding opportunities, and distributes information about Limited Submissions.
• Developing Your Proposal
  Our staff and the OSP Proposal Development Center provide developmental editing, proofreading, and group or individual consultation on all aspects of the proposal writing process, and proposal-related resources.
• Preparing & Submitting Your Proposal
  The Research Support Staff assist with developing budgets, verifying the necessary forms and templates, and explaining the requirements for the submission of your proposal. The Research Office will submit your proposal on behalf of Clemson University to the sponsor. CAH Policy states that a final version of your proposal must be submitted to CAH Research Support five business days prior to the sponsor deadline in order to meet University deadlines.
• Award Negotiation & Setup
  The Office of Research Support is authorized to negotiate and accept awards on your behalf. Our office works closely with faculty members during the negotiation phase.
• Managing Your Award
  The CAH Business Office works closely with the Office of Research Support and Grants and Contracts Administration in the Research Division during the life of the award.
• Project Closeout
  Grants and Contracts Administration works closely with the CAH Business Office and the Office of Research Support in closing out each project according to federal, state and/or sponsor guidelines.
