editing and proposal preparation
Editing and Proposal Preparation Service (EPPS)
EPPS is a unit within Engineering Research and Graduate Services (ERGS) at the Ira A. Fulton School of Engineering.
We provide workshops, information sessions, round-table forums and one-on-one assistance for specific funding opportunities and strategic initiatives for Engineering School faculty members. We also assist by assuming the coordination and editing tasks of grant proposal submissions.
EPPS works closely with Sponsored Projects Officers (SPO) from the Office for Research and Sponsored Projects Administration (ORSPA) to complete the administrative aspects of proposal submissions.
EPPS is not a replacement of the SPO or your Research Advancement Administrator; we enhance each other's work to help faculty produce the most competitive proposal possible.
