OSP reviews, prepares and signs all grant related contracts and documents. Only OSP can sign grant related contracts and agreements (speaker contracts, quotations, vendor agreements, subaward agreements, fellowships) on behalf of the university. Give us a call if you are unsure to avoid invalidating or delaying the grant, contract, or agreement and placing yourself or others at financial risk.
The Assistant Provost for OSP serves as the Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR) and Sponsored Research Officer (SRO) and is the only University Official authorized to create, review, and sign grant related contracts on behalf of the University.
