SPA/SPAC update meetings

In conjunction with our partners in Sponsored Projects Administration and Compliance (SPAC), Sponsored Programs Administration (SPA) holds quarterly update meetings to inform the campus of the latest updates in research administration and changes to policies and procedures. Each meeting includes a question-and-answer session. SPA or SPAC will send out the agenda three to four days before each scheduled meeting.

Contact Danielle Brown with suggestions for agenda items or future topics.
