The Old Dominion University Research Foundation offices of pre-award and post-award services were established to assist and facilitate in obtaining external funding to support academic development and the training of graduate students. The broad range of services provided to the faculty may be categorized as pre-award and post-award services.

The primary responsibilities of the pre-award services function includes proposal and budget preparation, submittal, and acceptance. Whereas, the post-award services function provides fiscal and administrative management support services from project inception through timely project closeout. Integral to both functions, is the shared responsibility to establish and enforce administrative procedures necessary to assure compliance with the regulation of the funding agencies for continued operation of sponsored programs.
