Dear Principal Investigator, or Research Administrator:

The University Corporation proudly introduces its new sponsored programs 
website at http://www.csun.edu/sponsoredprograms/ . The new website is part of 
our PRO-PI program to provide better customer service and ease administrative 
processes for Principal Investigators and Research Administrators. 

The site has been professionally designed and reorganized with the objective 
of providing clear and instant access to all the information necessary to 
manage your project.


The main features of the new site are:

- The number of layers have been drastically reduced, therefore you should be 
able to get to your information faster and without clicking through several 
links.

- The pages are better organized visually to allow quick scanning to quickly 
find the information you need.

- The red quick info menu bar on the top will guide you quickly to the most 
important information for Principal Investigators. 

- The grey menu bar on the left hand side will provide you to detailed access 
on all issues related to sponsored programs.

- The section for forms are now password protected. You can use your regular 
CSUN ID and password to access this section.

- The old Sponsored Programs website is still available for a short period of 
time to ease the transition to the new site. You can access the old site by 
clicking the button "View SP Old Version" in the Quick Links section of the 
new site or by entering the following URL address: 
http://www.csun.edu/sponsoredprograms/oldsite/ .

We would like to thank all of you, who have contributed to making this site 
better.

Should you have any questions or comments, please contact any Sponsored 
Programs team member. 

Best Regards,




Georg Jahn
