The Office of Sponsored Programs' First Recognition Reception 2016The Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) hosted our first Recognition Reception on September 2, 2016 to honor all faculty and staff involved in the pursuit of external funding during fiscal year 2016, (7/01/2015 - 6/30/2016). The program began with remarks from invited speakers about the importance of sponsored programs to the programming vitality of the university and to individual careers. Dr. A. Jerry Benson, Dr. Yvonne Harris, Dr. Cynthia Bauerle, Dr. Rhonda Zingraff, and Dr. Olga Pierrakos all spoke to share their messages about the broader impacts sponsored programs have beyond James Madison University to our local community and the region but also for our nation and the world. Following these speakers, Tamara Hatch, Interim Director and Liz Webb, Grants Specialist - OSP, Deans and Department Heads recognized Principal Investigators for an array of accomplishments. The Office of Sponsored Programs will strive to host a Recognition Reception each year to again acknowledge the hard work that is involved in the pursuit of external funding. If you have not provided your input about this year's Reception please consider taking our survey to help us refine the program for the coming year. Pictured above: Drs.

Timely Topic |
Revised Internal Approval FormAt the start of a new academic year we thought it would be a good idea to freshen up our Internal Approval Form. As you know, each funding proposal must be accompanied by this signed 2-page form which signifies approval of applicable authorities: department heads, deans, co-principal investigators, etc. Same but better/What has changed?
As we prepare budgets with you, we will prepare this updated Internal Approval Form for you. If you prepare your own Internal Approval Form, please transition to using this form. |
