Research Funding and Development Team

The Research Funding and Development team is part of the Research Services Division and provides expert advice and support services to researchers and research management staff across the University. The Team advises academics and professional staff on funding opportunities, provides guidance on pre-award and post-award funding management and supports the University Research and Innovation Portfolio by managing and delivering internal and targeted funding opportunities. The team is the main University point of contact for a diverse range of research management operations, including the monitoring of research projects and compliance activities within the unit.

The Major Initiatives team at ANU provides specialist advice and support to researchers, research management staff, delegates and other stakeholders on the planning, development and coordination of selected applications to high value, large scale, strategically important and/or complex research funding opportunities. The team provides support from idea conception right through to submission tailoring the support provided to the needs of the research team. ARC Centres of Excellence and Industrial Transformation Research Program proposals are supported by the team as well as NHMRC Centres of Research Excellence, Cooperative Research Centres and other ad hoc special initiatives.
