Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research
Administering the world-class research endeavors of CU-Boulder is primarily handled by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research. We have created this website to gather all research-related administrative resources under our purview together and to establish clear links to other resources that are handled at the CU-System level or other venues. We welcome your feedback and suggestions on how to continue improving this website to meet your needs at any time.
For quick reference, some key information from two of our sub-offices includes:
The Office of Contracts and Grants (OCG) is responsible for the administration of sponsored research agreements and funding. OCG's mission is to assist faculty, staff, and students with obtaining and managing external support for their sponsored projects while ensuring compliance with sponsor policies and procedures and protecting the interests of the University and State of Colorado.

Three sections that may be of particular interest to faculty and staff members are:
- Funding Opportunities
- Sponsored Research
- Proposal Preparation and Submission
- The Principal Investigator's Guide to Sponsored Projects
- Frequently Needed Information
- Reports about Sponsored Project Proposals, Awards, and Expenditures
Note: To ease the transition to this new website, the old OCG website will remain live through December 2009.
