Apply for Research Funding

Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages and Linguistics

 

Management of Ongoing Grants

The Principal Investigator (PI) is responsible for the overall management of each research project. The University offers multiple systems to aid PIs in managing their projects.

 

In the Research Dashboard, you can see the progress of your X5s, a summary of the current balance of your research grant budgets and the status of contract negotiations. You can also edit end dates for team members to help forecast costs of extensions.

The Research Grant Expenditure system shows details on budgets for all your awards, including overheads, indirect costs and all expenditure details. Access can be given to anyone working on the award, including administrators and project managers. Please contact the Faculty’s Research Administrator (researchadmin@mmll.cam.ac.uk) if access for your awards needs to be changed.

 

The Research Operations Office offers guidance on timesheets, including specific guidance for EC funded projects. Please ensure that all timesheets are submitted to the accounts team (accounts@mmll.cam.ac.uk) and are up to date.

 

Extensions and amendments

Extensions and amendments for existing awards usually require the same approval process as new applications, including an Worktribe costing. The Research Administrator will provide guidance, so please contact them as soon as possible if you are planning to apply for an extension or amendment.
