OER supports the COE\u2019s mission of advancing educational outcomes for all learners and advocates for research that addresses critical educational and societal needs. Supporting faculty to pursue external funding is a primary role of OER, and in doing so, the OER team is committed to principles of equity and excellence in the services OER provides.<\/p>\n With progressive leadership, the college continues to enhance its educational research infrastructure to pursue new external funding opportunities for faculty research. The OER successfully fuels research enterprise and external funding by providing pre- and post-award support to faculty. The OER also coordinates interdisciplinary efforts among COE faculty, UF faculty, and other local, regional, and national stakeholders.<\/p>\n The OER facilitates faculty professional development by managing research- and instruction-based training in areas such as research design, quantitative and qualitative analyses procedures, and project management. The OER also provides support for faculty to disseminate research findings and manages the faculty award process, particularly related to acquiring seed money for external funding.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” z_index=”18″ custom_margin=”20px||20px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” transform_styles__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_scale__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_translate__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_rotate__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_skew__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_origin__hover_enabled=”on|desktop”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _dynamic_attributes=”link_option_url” _module_preset=”default” background_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” transform_translate_linked__hover=”off” z_index=”100″ custom_padding=”24px|0px|24px|0px|false|false” link_option_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjI0NDA5IiwiZW5hYmxlX2h0bWwiOiJvZmYifX0=@” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ global_colors_info=”{}” transform_styles__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_scale__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_translate__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_rotate__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_skew__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_origin__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_translate__hover=”0px|-10px”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/education.ufl.edu\/educational-research\/files\/2026\/04\/OER-GroupPhoto-2026-scaled.jpeg” alt=”OER Group Photo” title_text=”OER-GroupPhoto-2026″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#194588″ header_2_font=”||||||||” header_2_text_color=”#edba75″ header_2_font_size=”28px” header_3_font=”||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#1F7E98″ header_3_font_size=”28px” custom_margin=”|20px|0px|20px|false|false” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#1C2F3D” custom_margin=”|20px|15px|20px|false|false” custom_padding=”||1px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The OER Pre-Award office partners with faculty to support grant proposals from initial idea conception through final submission.
