As part of OSU's commitment to supporting faculty grant success in the current challenging grant funding landscape, Office for Research Advancement is pleased to announce a contract with Hanover Research to provide comprehensive proposal revision services to our faculty members. This initiative aims to enhance the quality and competitiveness of research proposals, ensuring they meet the highest standards and have the best chance of securing funding.

Eligibility: Tenure-track and Professor of Practice or Senior Research faculty (Assistant and Associate Professors), research-active permanent staff

The 2025-2026 Hanover Proposal Revision program has been very popular with faculty this fall, with 15 faculty served from 8 Colleges since July. However, demand was greatest for grants due between July and November, so there are a number of spaces open for PIs to get feedback on their grant narratives between December and May.

To access the service, PIs should make a request through InfoReady, and will be approved first-come, first-served. Please see the pdf attached to the InfoReady form for more details about their offerings.
