Closing A Sponsored Program

Project closeout involves much more than simply the expiration of an award. For a sponsored project to be properly closed-out, the Principal Investigator must ensure that the following agency-specific requirements are met.

  • All technical and financial reports required by the funding agency have been submitted on time.
  • Any special requirements for the transfer or disposal of property purchased through the award have been met.
  • Patent or copyright procedures have been followed for personnel hired only for the duration of the award.
  • Proper termination procedures have been followed for personnel hired only for the duration of the award.
