Welcome to Research Administration

Research Administration is dedicated to support and facilitate innovative research endeavors across all disciplines. We strive to provide comprehensive administrative services, fostering a culture of excellence, integrity, and collaboration. Through our dedication to efficiency and transparency, we empower researchers to focus on their core work while ensuring compliance with regulatory standards and best practices. By nurturing a dynamic research ecosystem, we aim to contribute to the advancement of knowledge and the betterment of society.

What We Do

Research Administration is comprised of three units: Office of Sponsored Programs, Office of Grants and Contracts, and Office of Grant Accounting.

The Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) serves as the coordinating office for externally funded research projects submitted by the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV). The goal of OSP is to assist faculty, researchers and professional staff in their efforts to secure external funding.
