A sponsored program is defined as any externally funded research or scholarly activity that has a defined scope of work and/or set of objectives, which provide a basis for sponsor expectations.
The sponsored project will require some use of university resources and the sponsor will receive some benefit (which could range from a single technical and financial report through extensive material benefits).
Please see Policy FI0205 for more information.
