### The Office for Sponsored Programs provides pre- and post-award support in service of Harvard investigators.

Managing a diverse portfolio of federal, foundation, international, and industry sponsors, we partner with schools, departments, and centers across the University to facilitate proposal submission, award acceptance and administration, and all sponsored financial invoicing and reporting throughout the life of the award.
