The Office of the Vice President for Research enables faculty research by fostering a vibrant research environment at SLU.
Our goal is to lift many of the administrative burdens that accompany managing sponsored research so that faculty can focus on pursuing the research itself.
The Office of the Vice President for Research can assist SLU faculty in the following areas :
- Identifying funding opportunities
- Convening faculty from across disciplines and creating collaborations
- Proposal development and review
- Managing awards and post-award compliance support
Research Councils and Committees
In the spirit of shared governance, SLU Research manages a variety of committees and councils to convene faculty, staff and administration around research.
A list of these organizations, their charges, and their most up-to-date rosters can be viewed at the page below.
The Grant Operation (GO) Center brings together key pre- and post-award staff into a single team to provide hands-on support to faculty applying for and managing their grants.
The Research Strategy Group (RSG) works with faculty in all aspects of research program development, including idea generation, seed funding, project management, and proposal submission.
The Sponsored Programs Accounting (SPA) Group handles financial and accounting matters for faculty who have been awarded grants and contracts.
SPA provides this support for externally sponsored federal and private awards and for internally funded awards.
Saint Louis University has multiple committees charged with ensuring the safety and integrity of research performed at the University.
SLU’s research compliance committees help maintain effective compliance with University policy and regulatory requirements.
The Research Computing Group (RCG) builds on Saint Louis University's ambition to develop and improve computing infrastructure, technology, services and support for research.
