Pre-Award Administration


The Pre-Award Division of ORI is dedicated to supporting TAMUK faculty, researchers, and program directors, by expertly assisting with proposal development and timely submission to external funding sponsors who support research, instruction and other public service programs. Pre-award also facilitates review, negotiation, and acceptance of contracts, subcontracts, and awards.
