The Department of Grant and Contract Accounting performs financial accounting and administrative support services for sponsored research on the Camden campus. The team works with faculty, staff, and central research administrative offices to ensure the compliance and efficiencies of sponsored programs and other restricted funds. Following best practices and cost-principles the post-award team offers a customer service-oriented culture, that strives for the highest standards of excellence in research administration.​

Researchers can find the assistance they need, such as grant and contract accounting and postaward management. Principal investigators are essential to a research institution such as Rutgers University–Camden. They provide research in areas that are funded by federal, state, private, and corporate entities. 

Assistance for Researchers

Programs sponsored by federal, state, and private agencies represent a significant and important financial resource to the University, and enable it to carry out its principal missions of teaching, research, and public service.

The Office of Research Development, Office of Sponsored Research, and Grants and Contract Accounting assist faculty members in their efforts to obtain and administer externally sponsored programs in accordance with the rules and regulations governing the programs.

The procedural efforts of ORSP and DGCA are intended to ensure that the University remains in good programmatic and financial standing with these sponsors and, thereby, encourage a steady source of funding for the University and its faculty.
