Research Administrators Council

All K-State professionals working in research administration at the department, college, or central administration levels in preaward or postaward capacities are invited to join the Research Administrators Council.

  • Goals of the council are to provide better communication among all levels of administrators and to offer training opportunities and exchange ideas about current topics and issues.
  • Quarterly meetings are held on the second Tuesday of the first month of each quarter from 10:30 a.m. to 12 noon. Locations will vary. Check K-State Today or the Office of the Vice President for Research events calendar for details.
  • Join our listserv to stay informed! Subscribe by sending an email to listserv@listserv.ksu.edu with this body of the message: sub rac-l
