January 30, 2025 —The recent executive order that temporarily paused certain federal financial assistance and related activities has now been rescinded. As a result, federal agencies are resuming standard operations, including funding disbursements.
We encourage faculty to remain attentive to any further communications from federal agencies.
If you receive any updates or inquiries from a federal program officer, please notify Kim Smith, AVP for Research Administration (kim@ucf.edu), so our team at the Office of Research can assist you in navigating any necessary steps.
UCF remains committed to supporting our research community, and we will continue to share relevant updates as more information becomes available. Thank you for your patience and cooperation throughout this transition.
