The Research Office is responsible for the management of research that takes place at Macquarie University or is conducted by University staff. This task is divided between four functional teams:

  • Sponsored Research Team: assists researchers in finding and enabling opportunities for government (non-ACGR) and industry grants, collaborative research, contract research, consultancy and tenders.
  • Research Grants Team: submits applications and proposals for research funding and assists in the management of research funding
  • Research Contracts Team: manages the review, negotiation, drafting and execution of research contracts
  • Ethics Team: manages the application and approval processes for research ethics relating to humans, animals and biosafety, and provides secretarial services to the associated Committees
  • Reporting and Data: collects research data, manages the Integrated Research Information System (IRIS) and provides internal and external reports relating to research data.
The ERA Project Team has been established to manage the process of collection and submission of data for the Excellence in Research For Australia initiative.
