Research administration training + resources


The Office of Research offers research administration training and resources for grant coordinators and others who support research at KU.

Grant coordinator meetings

Quarterly meetings provide an opportunity for grant coordinators and research administration staff to discuss important changes and hot topics, view demonstrations of new systems, and review updates on policies, forms and processes. Most importantly, these gatherings provide a venue for open dialogue involving everyone engaged in supporting research and sponsored projects at KU.  

Check the calendar below for future meeting dates, and access materials from previous meetings on the Research Administration Training & Resources Canvas site. If the site does not appear under "My Courses," please email Nancy Biles to request access.
