Grant Development

The Academic Affairs Office assists Northern Oklahoma College faculty, staff and administrators in the preparation of proposals and other grant-related documents for submission to funding agencies including federal and state agencies, corporations and foundations. Without the dedication and persistence of our employees, NOC would not be able to secure grant funds that enhance, expand and improve the many programs needed to assist its students in fulfilling their dreams of a college education. By faculty and staff working closely with the grants coordinator and grants accountant, it will ensure a comprehensive and competitive proposal is submitted to external agencies.

Centralized Grant Files

The Grants Coordinator in the Academic Affairs Office is responsible for the maintenance of complete grant program files. This office will manage the institutional grants database to maintain a central repository of past successful and unsuccessful proposals for reference, accuracy, and flexibility for future reporting. It is the responsibility of all principal investigators, program directors and other staff and faculty to ensure that a copy of all correspondence and grant related documents is provided to the grants coordinator for inclusion in the centralized grant files.
