Grants and Research Administration

The Office of Grants and Research Administration endeavors to provide effective Sponsored Program (pre-award) and Grant Fiscal Administration (post-award) services to the faculty and staff of the School of Arts & Sciences, School of Education, School of Business, and School of Law at The College of William & Mary.

It is our goal to foster a supportive environment for those faculty who engage in externally sponsored research and programs by fostering quality research and scholarship, disseminating funding opportunity information, assisting with responses to funding opportunities, and facilitating collaborative research while being tasked to ensure federal and state guidelines for compliance.
