Office of Research Services

Memorial's Office of Research Services is a service unit that acts as a liaison between faculty members and various funding organizations.
Last year, researchers at Memorial brought in more than $110 million in external funding for their research efforts.
The Office of Research Services (ORS) offers services such as:
- Reviewing research proposals and applications to ensure that they adhere to both university and agency policies.
- Approving proposals, applications, funding agreements and research contracts on behalf of the university.
- Negotiating and administering university research contracts.
The Office also keeps track of deadlines and application policies for some 500 funding programs from more than 150 agencies and organizations. Researchers must submit all funding applications to ORS for review and institutional signature. Internal deadlines apply.
