STScI has immediate openings for entry level and experienced research administrators. 

If you really love having an investigator show up at the last minute with a grant proposal that is due tonight, this is not the job for you.  We are sorry but as the sponsor we just can’t offer that and you can stop reading and move on to the next listserv message.  If that is not a deal breaker, please keep reading.

We are the sponsor of the research grants for astronomers using NASA’s Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes as well as the prestigious NASA Hubble Fellowship Program.  We are a small but growing organization with amazing team members who really enjoy what we do and the relationships we develop with the investigators and research administrators at the universities and research centers across the U.S.  We promote a culture of partnering with our grant recipients to see that the research succeeds and adding value as the sponsor.  STScI is located in Baltimore, Maryland on the Johns Hopkins Homewood campus and we are currently operating in a hybrid work environment which could support working from home. 

If you or someone you know might be interested in experiencing research administration from the awarding side, check out our Grant Administrator openings at https://www.stsci.edu/opportunities.

Hello, everyone.

I hope the academic year is off to a smooth start for everyone.

The Office of Research and Sponsored Programs at Stockton University (state university in NJ) is looking for suggestions for grant management software that other colleges/universities use to retain documentation for and track/manage all proposals/contracts/sponsored research projects, etc. This software would be used to track all private sector (foundations, corporations, etc.) and governmental (federal, state, and local) grants/contracts/sponsored research proposals/projects.

What is the database or software that your college/university uses for this purpose?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions/feedback that you can offer!

Best,

Jen
