Job Summary: The Director of the Office of Sponsored Programs oversees the administration of externally sponsored grants and contracts at UA, including sponsored research, instruction, and other sponsored activities. OSP supports the research community by establishing policies and procedures, providing guidance and consultation, and serving as the liaison with external sponsors on administrative changes throughout the life of an award.
Additional Department Summary: In June 2019, the Office for Research & Economic Development (ORED) launched a five-year strategic plan for research at The University of Alabama (UA). The plan – emanating from UA’s goal to, “increase the University’s productivity and innovation in research, scholarship, and creative activities that impact economic and societal development,” – focuses on six strategic themes: (1) Research Environment, (2) Alabama Research Institutes, (3) Transformative Initiatives, (4) Translating Intellectual Property, (5) Economic and Business Engagement, and (6) Assessing Progress and Impact.
For the ninth straight fiscal year, UA sponsored awards were at an all-time high and new sponsored awards more than doubled to $211.4 million in FY22. The overall doubling of support for sponsored projects clears the strategic plan’s five-year goal ahead of schedule. This growth rate strengthens UA’s position as one of the fastest growing research institutions in the nation and is attributed to successful investments in infrastructure and world-class faculty and the establishment of signature research institutes representing cyber, life research, transportation, and water. Together, ORED, the four Alabama Research Institutes, and the Alabama Analytical Research Center are developing and leading major transformational research initiatives with local, state, national, and international impact, as well as pursuing lasting economic development projects.
