Project Management
The primary function of the Project Management Unit is to support the Institution's researchers in their participation in research projects and other R&D&I initiatives. The unit is responsible for managing activities submitted to public and private competitive funding calls, where funding is awarded through evaluation and selection processes in competition with other proposals, typically at regional, national or international level. The unit also promotes participation in these funding opportunities and encourages collaboration among research groups, both within the Institution and with external organisations and research centres, providing support in the management of joint R&D&I activities. In addition, the unit manages non-competitive funding initiatives, such as agreements, contracts and collaborations with external entities, including their administrative processing and the monitoring of contractual commitments, ensuring the proper implementation and justification of the corresponding activities.
The overarching objective of the unit is to increase participation in research projects and enhance the Institute's capacity to attract research funding and resources. In collaboration with the other units, the project management unit is responsible for the following key functions:
- Dissemination and promotion among researchers of available public and private funding opportunities for R&D&I activities.
- Advising researchers on the preparation of grant applications submitted to funding calls from public and private organisations.
- Submission of project activity reports to the Research Committee and the relevant Ethics Committees, and preparation of the corresponding approval reports.
- Review and submission of applications to the relevant funding bodies.
- Guidance on internal project procedures and requirements.
In addition, the Project Management Unit monitors project activities, outcomes and available resources, and prepares follow-up reports to support the Scientific Directorate and Research Groups in identifying areas for improvement and implementing appropriate corrective or strategic actions.
