O ce of Research & Sponsored Programs (ORSP)
• MWU’s ORSP handles both pre-award and post-award grant and contract submissions,
including 86 proposals submitted in FY 2018 requesting $14,442,699;
• MWU’s ORSP has received signi cant budget increases since 2008, allowing us to o er
intramural funds to all colleges, and to o er the following full-time positions to support faculty
research:
- A Senior Grants Specialist and Grants Specialist to assist faculty with grant and budget
preparation and submission;

performs research in a manner compliant with federal, state and MWU regulations;
• For faculty involved in animal research who are seeking extramural funding, the ORSP can
waive animal per diem charges, including nearly
$229,585 of waived charges in FY 2018;
• In FY 2018, MWU’s ORSP o ered $9,898 to support a Research Seminar Series where faculty
can bring in experts in their eld (departments typically supplement the ORSP honorarium);
Research Facilities
• In 2014 MWU completed Cactus Wren, a new building with research facilities, on our
Glendale campus:
- is building has 11,161 square feet of space dedicated to research;
- e research-related costs of the building totaled $10,017,270;
- is brings the total cost of expenditures for research space on the Glendale campus,
including our Foothills, Cholla and Cactus Wren buildings, to $20,870,255;

CONTRACTS.
TOTAL COMPENSATION TO ALL COLLEGES FOR RESEARCH SUPPORT POSITIONS
IN THIS REPORTING PERIOD IS $3,826,428
UNIVERSITY-FUNDED CAPITAL RESEARCH EQUIPMENT
Another manner in which MWU supports research is through consideration and funding of
capital research equipment requests submitted by departments. For Fiscal Year 2018, MWU has spent
$1,614,097 on capital equipment purchases for research purposes across both campuses.
UNIVERSITY-FUNDED PER DIEM CHARGES
A way in which MWU supports research is through the waiving of animal per diem charges for those
seeking extramural funding. During the current reporting period, MWU waived $229,585 in
animal per diem charges across both campuses.
UNIVERSITY-FUNDED RECAPTURED SALARIES
AS “ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION”
Finally, another way that MWU supports research is through o ering additional pay to faculty who
receive grants which support “hard money” salary positions. When grant funds are exhausted the
additional pay is eliminated. For Fiscal Year 2018, MWU paid out $49,652 as “Additional
Compensation” to faculty Principal Investigators on grants. is payment is available to all faculty
who receive extramural funding for their research, subject to the ORSP’s Recaptured Salaries on Grants
policy.
