Tuesday deadline for DAWG professional development program
The Mississippi State University Office of Research Development is pleased to announce the return of the DAWG program.
The Departmental Administrator's Working Group (DAWG) is a year-long professional development and training opportunity for unit-level support personnel who have responsibilities related to sponsored projects. DAWG members are guided through the proposal lifecycle and grants administration processes to gain a better understanding of pre and post award functions.
Topics include how the different offices under ORED work together to support faculty, budgeting, proposal preparation, post-award management, MSU and federal regulations and sponsor priorities, as well as further career development opportunities. The class meets for two hours once a month for the academic year.
The deadline for applications is Tuesday [Aug. 15]. Applicants will be notified by email of their acceptance into the 2023-2024 class.
