The aim of this handbook is to give researchers at the School of Communication and Culture a single source of information about what happens when they receive an external grant, and to help project managers find any advice they may need. The handbook is a working document which will be updated and revised on a regular basis following input and feedback from project managers. It is designed as a work of reference to answer FAQs. But you are of course welcome to contact your research consultant or project finance controller if you have any other questions. If there are topics that should be added to or adjusted in the project handbook, you are also very welcome to contact the research consultant (hbk@cc.au.dk)
