Resources

CRASE links faculty to available resources on campus, online, in the community, and through professional organizations. If you are applying for a grant, a fellowship, an award, conducting research with human participants, or creating your online research profile, CRASE can help.

 

Office of Contracts and Grants

The Office of Contracts and Grants (OCG) encourages and supports USF faculty and staff in their pursuit of federal, state, and local funding for research and institutional contracts and grants.

OCG helps faculty and staff identify prospective funding opportunities, interpret federal and state agency guidelines, develop realistic budgets, complete application requirements, and prepare competitive proposals.

OCG also provides post-award support to faculty and staff to help them manage their grants and contracts by providing financial information, interpreting agency requirements, and helping them to request approvals for no-cost extensions and budget reallocations.
