Services We Offer
The office of the Associate Dean for Research seeks to minimize pre-award barriers to proposal submission. COSSPP grants analyst Laura Kitchens lkitchens@fsu.edu helps faculty prepare proposal applications. Assistance is available for help with common tasks such as budget development, coordinating with FSU’s Sponsored Research Administration / Research Foundation and ensuring proposal compliance for submission.
Moreover, COSSPP sponsors programming and training activities geared toward faculty development and offers seed funding programs to enhance faculty research. Over $60,000 in research support funding has been awarded by COSSPP since 2019.
