Welcome to the Sponsored Programs Office. We help River Parishes Community College faculty and staff turn ideas into projects and fundable proposals.
Sponsored Programs provides external public funding opportunities in support of identified college needs through federal, state, private and local grants. The external funding obtained through grants and projects supports curriculum and course development, acquisition of equipment, faculty development, and student support services. We're here to provide you with quality service.

After you have analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of your idea and determined how to fix the weakness, the next steps are:
- Analyze literature, search for gaps in knowledge, and note conclusions.
- Identify gaps that establish your project as the next logical step.
- Find 5 - 10 articles that support the need for your project.
