The Research Office supports externally funded research activity at SOAS by:

• disseminating information about research funding opportunities
• giving support to academic staff making external research grant applications
• costing projects and advising on funders’ terms and conditions
• managing the funds of awarded grants
• servicing the School’s Research Committee
• administering the School’s research ethics policies and procedures
• co-ordinating the School’s submission to the Research Excellence Framework (REF).

All applications for external research funding must be submitted through the Research Office. Please see Research Funding Manual (pdf; 567kb) for more information.
