Research grants are generally awarded specifically for nominated projects.

Upon confirmation from Research Services Office that a research grant has been accepted, Research Finance will set up a Research Cost Centre in the University’s finance system, Finance One.
It is important to note:

• The use of funds from research grants are governed by the conditions specified by the grantors
• Expenditure from one project cannot be charged to another project’s grant

Grantees and/or faculties are responsible for the management of the grant and must ensure that funds are spent in accordance with approved budgets and within the time limits imposed by the grant conditions.

It is also the responsibility of grantees and/or faculties to ensure that the information in the relevant grant cost centre accounts is accurate, up-to-date at the end of each reporting period and that the grant is fully expended at the date of grant termination.

If you need any assistance with the finance aspect of your research project grants please contact:
