Griffith's Research Grants Team provides support and advice in all areas of competitive research grant management. Reporting to the Deputy Director, Research Services and managed by the Senior Manager, Research Grants, the Team is split into:

§ Preaward (managing grant application processes for all external competitive research grants)

§ Postaward (providing support for successful competitive research grants)

§ Research Contracts (providing contract development and review support)

§ Internal grants (for DVCR-funded internal Griffith research grant schemes).

These units are supported by the Grants and RIMS data administrators.
