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.

Our office assists faculty, staff, and students distinguish themselves through their scholarly efforts. We accomplish this by assisting with the funding needs of faculty, staff, and students engaged in original research, creative endeavors, and other forms of scholarship. Our office:

  • Funds faculty scholarly projects through internal grant programs
  • Provides pre-award consultative services and technical support for faculty developing external grant proposals
  • With our partners in the Finance Office, assists with the administration of grant awards during the post-award phase
  • Upholds the college's mission by attending to regulatory and compliance concerns through the development of policies and procedures relating to externally sponsored projects

Our comprehensive approach to research administration allows us to better understand the entire cycle of an award and serve as a resource for you, no matter what stage of the process you are in. We strive to serve the campus community with exceptional expertise and customer service. Please let us know how we may assist you.

There is a wide range of funding opportunities available to Saint Anselm faculty who are seeking support for their research projects.  These funding opportunities include the US federal government, corporations, foundations and non-profits, among others. We are available to help prospect, but encourage you to begin your search by doing the following:

  • Perform a search of federal grant opportunities by accessing Grants.gov and other governmental sources (i.e. NIH, NSF, USDOE, etc.).
  • Review our recent newsletter/list of faculty grant awards received within the past two years. This is a valuable resource to see who on campus may have been funded by a source you are interested in pursuing.
