Policy Purpose:
Sponsored programs are those activities that are supported by funding external to the general operating budget of the institution. Sponsored program funding is restrictive in nature in that the activities it supports are specified by the external agency through the mechanisms of grants, contracts, and/or cooperative agreements. Sponsored program funding is awarded to East Tennessee State University – not to individuals or subunits of the institution - and is managed by the Office of Grant Accounting in the Office of Finance and Administration. The Office of Research and Sponsored Programs Administration is responsible for the review and submission of proposals for sponsored program support, the negotiation of sponsored and research-related agreements, and all non-financial, post-award functions.
