Post-Award Administration

Post-Award Services provides award management support to Principal Investigators, deans, department chairs, administrators, and other campus officials in the administration of grants, contracts, and agreements. Grant Accountants are assigned to each UWM School/College/Division or department to serve as the primary point of contact and to help facilitate the overall post-award process while balancing the need for institutional and sponsor regulatory compliance.

Award management is a shared responsibility between the Office of Sponsored Programs, the Principal Investigator (PI), and the PI’s School/College/Division or unit. The process shares responsibility for award management and ensures that, as a grant recipient, UWM is a responsible steward of the sponsor’s resources.
