Sponsored Programs
Funding for research and creative work at USD comes from external sources (government agencies, foundations, private corporate partners) as well as focused internal programs. Whatever the source, the competition for financial project support is keen. The Office of Research and Sponsored Programs provides assistance and consultation to support faculty and student researchers and scholars in their efforts to gain a competitive edge. Sponsored Programs staff manage a rapidly growing number of funding applications from USD, submitting nearly 350 proposals last year.
