Sponsored Programs Mission, Goals & Outcomes

Mission

The mission of the Sponsored Programs Office (SPO) is to provide administrators, faculty, staff, and students with guidance to develop grant proposals and secure external funding for approved projects; and to provide post-award administration to ensure that all grant-funded activities, expenditures, and reports comply with the terms of the award.  This mission supports SUNY Broome’s Vision, Mission, Values and Institutional Learning Outcomes.
