Project Administration Guide
Project Administration
The administration of sponsored projects requires a collaborative effort between the principal investigator (PI) and the sponsored research administration (SRA) staff, each with their own unique set of responsibilities. The purpose of this section of the manual is to outline the general responsibilities of both the PI and the SR administrator, present an overview of project management focusing on the role of the PI, and provide PIs and their staff with the policies, documentation and forms needed to successfully manage their projects.
