    About

    The Carolina Grants and Innovation Hub combines the work of Research Training and Education Services and Research and Grant Development Services to provide comprehensive research development services to faculty and research administrators.

    Mission

    The CGI Hub’s mission is to support faculty at all levels and from all disciplines in their pursuit of research and scholarship excellence. By providing innovative programs, resources, and services, CGI Hub will increase faculty competitiveness in obtaining extramural funding.

    The goal of the Carolina Grants and Innovation Hub is to increase not only the quantity but the quality of USC proposal submissions, enabling our faculty and research administrators to make real strides in growing the university’s research profile. The centralization of Research Training and Education Services and Research and Grant Development Services in one place will streamline the grant process and allow us to make a difference.
