Research Administration Partnership sessions

Research Administration Partnership (RAP) sessions are quarterly lunch hour gatherings to discuss and learn about various topics within the University’s research administration. The sessions are designed to spark discussion, improve processes and build partnership among the administrative and classified staff working on grants and other sponsored project administration across campus. We hope you’ll join us!

These sessions are geared towards employees involved with the administrative side of grants and other sponsored projects (e.g., proposal preparation, infoEd file creation, post-award accounting, reporting, etc.). No registration is required to attend.
