Re: What courses for certificate program Susan Dolle 22 Jun 2004 11:35 EST

A colleague and I recently played with the idea of a degree program in
research admin and very quickly came up with the following. It needs
refining, but is a starting point.

1.  Locating funding for grant and contract activity (covers database
options, types of agencies and programs, developing relationships,
etc.)

2.  Proposal Development

3.  Managing an institutional sponsored programs office including
institutional review and recordkeeping for sponsored programs.

4.  Fiscal and budget management for sponsored programs including
fiscal
reporting, OMB procedures and practices, audit issues, and close out
procedures.

5.  Award negotiation and post award project management

6.  The management and protection of intellectual property.

7.  The protection of human subjects, or maybe that belongs in a
broader
topic of the management of assurances and compliances that would also
include animal care and use, radioactive and hazardous materials,
scientific
misconduct, conflict of financial interest, and all the federal
requirements.

8.  Structure and operation of a technology transfer operation

I did my graduate work in Health Administration, which also had a lot
of useful courses... but not right on target. The best part was my
master's thesis work which was self-selected and done on establishing
training programs in research administration.

I would like to see an accredited distance learning master's level
certificate program established that could be accessed by research
administrators from their home institutions.  It has been discussed by
the professional society leadership for years, but just hasn't come to
pass.

What courses would you recommend should one be developed?

No, but I took an M.P.A. (basically an M.B.A. but with focus on
not-for-profit and public sector) and that has worked out pretty well.
There are many institutions which offer this degree.

Subject: [RESADM-L] degree or certificate program in research
administration

I am aware of the CRA (Certified Research Administrator) that is
offered
by the Research Administrators Certification Council. However, do you
know of any academic institution that has a degree program or a
certificate program in Research Administration?
