Mission of the Office of Grants and Sponsored Programs
The UNH Office of Grants and Sponsored Programs (OGSP) facilitates scholarly activities by providing assistance with the identification, development, and submission of external funding proposals and the implementation of awards. Concern for the University's interests is demonstrated through resource management and oversight of compliance standards.
