ponsored Programs (SP) supports the mission of FAU and the Division of Research as the central business office for the submission of research, education and community service proposals and awards received. SP is dedicated to providing services that give FAU faculty and staff a competitive edge in obtaining external funding. With more than $33 million in programs sponsored by state, federal and private sources, SP works to identify and match funding opportunities with principal investigators’ research interests; to review, edit and approve research proposal submissions; to review and negotiate award terms and conditions; and to provide training and workshops for faculty and staff. . SP is also responsible for facilitating, reviewing and approving post-award actions and coordinating with sponsors. In these pages, you will read about research funded by agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Florida Sea Grant and the U.S. Department of Energy, to name just a few. Our investigators are conducting research across a broad spectrum that includes the search for new cancer treatments and an initiative to harness the power of the ocean’s currents to produce renewable energy. We are proud of all that they’re doing to craft a better future for everyone.
