OSP and Unit Responsibilities

This Responsibility Page is designed to help UMBC researchers locate the Grants & Contracts Staff assigned to their respective College, Center, or Central Unit for assistance with Pre-Award functions (i.e., grants & contracts proposal preparation and submission) as well non-financial Post-Award support (i.e., no-cost extension, change in scope, budget re-allocations, change of PI, etc.).

For Researchers (PIs):  In addition to contact information regarding our Central Offices (OSP and OCGA), please ensure that your first/primary and initial Point of Contact when preparing grant and contract proposals for routing purposes and subseqent submission should ALWAYS be your Business Office (Shared Service Center [SSC] or the Business Manager(s) for your unit/College).  We have included the SSC contacts, and, where available, administrative contacts for units/centers.

General Information and Responsiblities
