Office of Sponsored Research

The EARDA Research Development Program (RDP) is the St. Thomas University research development and support office. We promote faculty-student research and scholarship, provide information about grant opportunities, and help you prepare grant proposals. If your funding needs do not have research components (bricks and mortar & equipment), please contact the University Office of Advancement at (305) 628-6661, or visit them online.

The RDP offers training, consultation and technical support for developing research projects and can help match up a student research assistant with a faculty project. We can help you to identify funding and partnership opportunities! In addition, the RDP serves as a resource to assist faculty with their responsibilities relating to grant administration and compliance. This site offers faculty resources to develop, propose and gain support for funding to support academic research projects.
