Assistance from the Research Support Office
Who
The Research Support Office offers most Health researchers personal help with funding applications. However, for priority reasons, PhD students and researchers below assistant professor and postdoc level must use the assistance options presented under "Especially for PhDs".
What
The Research Support Office helps with preparing a funding strategy, preparing bibliometric analyses, writing/quality-assuring applications, and with project administration and budgeting. Finally, the Research Support Office provides a number of self-help tools and holds ongoing courses on good applications.
When
For applications to national funds, help from the Research Support Office is offered to all researchers above PhD level. If an application falls under the Horizon Europe program, the Research Support Office is the project manager and must be involved in all phases.
How
Call or write to a member of the Research Support Office team.
Especially for PhDs
PhD students and researchers below assistant professor and postdoc level must use their supervisors to quality-assert research applications. In addition, you are encouraged to take advantage of these offers:
- Seek help from HE Finance, which can draw up budgets based on standard rates for salaries and other expenses. Interested parties please contact okonomicenterhealth.okoplan@au.dk.
- Use the Research Support Office'ss electronic toolbox, which contains tips for, among other things, project descriptions and tools for drawing up CVs and budgets in a clear manner.
If, exceptionally, there is an application from a PhD student that has greater strategic importance for the department, the head of department can contact the Research Support Office for a special agreement.
