SUBS OF ALL KINDS - Navigating Research Administration at the University of Michigan​​

The Navigate Program is pleased to announce a new pilot virtual, instructor-led course to be offered in March 2023: Navigate: Subs of All Kinds.

Target Audience

The Navigate: Subs of All Kinds course is recommended for research administrators (RAs) and others with limited knowledge about or experience with sponsored subawards and subprojects.

We will conduct the course virtually through two half-day Zoom sessions. Course materials will be available in Canvas.

This pilot course introduces participants to the various “subs” involved in sponsored research administration (e.g., subaward, subrecipient, subcontract, SubK, subproject, etc.). Through instructor presentations, class discussions and activities, participants will learn about:
