Proposal Development

The Office of Research & Economic Development provides a range of proposal development services, with priorities given to large center-scale and multiple PI grants as these often need cross-discipline coordination, as well as to NSF CAREER awards which are of strategic importance to LSU. All other proposals are served based on relevance to the campus-wide strategic priorities, the needs of the PI and resources available within the PI's department and college, the ORED office and the university.

Request Support

Requests for Proposal Development assistance should be made 6-9 months prior to the program's submission deadline. All proposal development requests will be evaluated by ORED senior leadership. Factors for consideration will include allotted time for proposal development/assistance, qualifications of the PI, the long-term benefits to the university, and distribution of ORED support across all focal areas.
