Getting a grant can seem very complicated and maybe it is. However, at Southern Utah University (SUU) it is a little bit easier. Faculty and staff have a team dedicated to help them through the process of locating, applying, receiving, and completing grants. This team of superpowered individuals is called the Office of Sponsored Programs, Research, Agreements, & Contracts or SPARC. In part one of our two part series in learning about the SPARC office, we will meet the student team members that can do a lot of the leg work when seeking out a grant at SUU. Join us as we talk with SUU's SPARC office student team members Lawrence Mbaki, Abigail Orozco, and Carson Brown as we begin to delve into grants at SUU.
