The Office of Research and Commercialization serves UCF scholars as the official liaison between UCF and external agencies by providing a helping hand for faculty working their way through the funding and contract management process. The Office helps establish connections with the agency and individuals who invest in the promise of research and creative activities. During the 1980s the office was known as the Office and Research and Graduate Studies, which were eventually separated into two separate offices.
