Your research support office

Your College Research Support Office (CRSO) is here to help you with your external funding proposals for research and consultancy activities.

Examples of the type of support we offer include:

  • Finding the best funder and scheme for your idea.
  • Advising on the call requirements (including any technical aspects), including drawing on past experience.
  • Advising you of internal approval processes.
  • Providing examples of previous success (where available).
  • Discussing your resource requirements and organising your budget, including Financial sign off.
  • Completing online submission forms.
  • Making sure any Terms and Conditions are reviewed by the University.
  • Coordinating the relevant contracting arrangements upon award.

Please do get in touch with us as soon as you have an idea for a project or have seen a funding scheme of interest. Early engagement means that we can set up the overall application process to run effectively and create the best possible conditions for your success.

Developing these intranet pages will be ongoing and, if you share your view and ideas, it will help us to continue to improve this important resource for the benefit of the entire University community.

We also welcome your comments on university internal communications in general. Email the team or pick up the phone 0121 414 6680. You can also tweet us. Whichever way you decide to get in touch we look forward to hearing what you have to say.

If you have a technical question you can contact our IT colleagues as they are much better at that stuff than we are!
