About PSU

The Unit has been created to facilitate project development and management of grants across the Institution. It espouses an inter-disciplinary and multi-sectoral approach and recognises the future long term research needs to maximise impact. The Unit plays an important role in fostering cooperation across all Schools and Centre’s to optimise effectiveness, catalyse and add value to existing research endeavours. It also provides strategic direction to maximise existing expertise and identify opportunities to leverage funds to support local and international research development activities. Strategic partnerships within and outside the Institution, keeping abreast with the relevant dynamics and trends within the research and grants management environment is key to our work in ensuring sustainable research development.
