The Office of Sponsored Projects and Research supports the college's goals of investing in our faculty and staff and advancing academic excellence.
Our office works with faculty in partnership with the Office of Academic Affairs and Finance to manage research proposals from the beginning, or 'pre-award,' stage of a project through the termination, or 'closeout,' of an award. We also partner with the Office of Advancement on institutional priorities that are seeking support from government agencies, or have a strong faculty component.

1. Principal Investigator (PI): Develops Project Concept/Idea
2. PI: Contact the Office of Sponsored Programs and Research for Guidance
3. Prepare Proposal/Scope of Work and Discuss/route Proposal for Dept. Approval (PI, Chair & Dean)
4. Submit Proposal & Grant Review Form to OSPR for Review (see Grant Approval Process below)
5. OSPR provides PI with feedback on proposal and assistance as needed (budget, documentation, support letters, etc.) to prepare for final /complete application
6. OSPR submits Grant Review Form for Approval to submit (Finance and Academic Affairs)
7. OSPR submits proposal or PI receives OSPR’s Approval to Submit
8. Funding decision: Project is funded or not funded. If funding is declined, OSPR will help with preparing for a resubmission (if applicable) and/or provide assistance with identifying alternative funding sources.
The Grant Proposal Guidelines have been recently updated to require that all grant proposals be approved by the Grant Proposal Review Committee before being submitted to a funding agency (see Faculty Handbook in the Portal).
When faculty and staff members consider applying to sources outside Saint Anselm College for grants or other forms of financial support, they should complete a Grant Review Form (available by contacting mmader@anselm.edu), and submit it to the director of sponsored programs and research. This brief form provides the committee with basic information about the proposal and the extent to which it will involve the college in any form of fiscal obligation, including funds, in-kind contributions or released time. In most cases, the committee will approve the proposal within one week of receiving the form.
Completed forms should be sent via email as an attachment to mmader@anselm.edu. If you have questions about the grant proposal process, please contact Sponsored Programs and Research at (603) 641-7174.
