About the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs
The Office of Research and Sponsored Programs (ORSP) is a centralized research administration office that provides direct support to researchers at TWU in various forms. Pre-award and post-award support is provided to TWU faculty, staff, and students who are seeking, or have received, external funding for their research and other sponsored programs. This support includes guideline review, proposal development, budget preparation, and proposal routing and submission. ORSP facilitates contract review, routing, and execution and matters of Intellectual Property. Working collaboratively with departments, ORSP provides support to funded researchers to assist with payroll, purchasing, travel, questions related to allowable costs, and reporting. To support faculty, ORSP manages a number of internal funding and incentive programs for faculty research. ORSP also supports the various compliance-related committees such as the Institutional Review Board, Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee, Institutional Biosafety Committee, and Radiation Safety Committee and provides scientific research equipment repair services.
