UT Austin Foundation Relations assisting SHS Researchers - 7/31/2023:

UT Foundation Relations is available to Steve Hicks School researchers to assist in identifying and securing private foundation funding. OADR will meet with the Foundation Relations team on a quarterly basis to share about the applicable funding proposals that come through our office.  

If you are interested in learning more about funding your research via private foundations, please contact Masa Pettit, Director of Foundation Relations at masa.pettit@austin.utexas.edu. Questions for OADR may please be directed to Kristan Gannaway at kristan.gannaway@austin.utexas.edu.

Grants and Contract Statistics, for FY21-22

• $20.1 million in contract/grant awards
• $58.3 million in spending authority
• 51% “hit rate” 

Previous Announcements from our ADR:

NIH funding levels by race/ethnicity and DEIA Strategic Plan - 4/7/2023

Qualtrics Accessibility - Upcoming Service Changes - 3/1/2023

Grant Submission Deadlines - 2/13/2023

With the new proposal submission portal, UT Research Management Suite, it is critical to have all proposal materials finalized by noon of the proposal deadline day

(even better the day before!).

OSP needs time to confirm that there won’t be any system errors that will reject a submission.  There is less flexibility to make last minutes changes to proposals as with our previous portal.  

Thank you for your efforts to this goal.
