Managing Research Funds

Early Set Up of Research Account

Circumstances may arise where the principal investigator requests access to an account before the required documentation is complete. The Research Services Office recommends early account set ups only in extenuating circumstances.

Trust Account Setup and Funding Notifications

Before funds awarded may be deposited and expended, the Research Services Office requires that protocols for the use of animals, human participants or biohazards have been approved. Once these approvals are confirmed (if applicable), the Research Services Office will proceed with administering the funds.

Roles and Responsibilities of those involved in Research Award Administration

This document outlines the Roles and Responsibilities of those involved with Research Award Administration to ensure the funds are utilized for the designated purposes for which they are awarded and they comply with UofG and Sponsor policies and guidelines.
