Effective July 1, 2017, the office of Sponsored Award Accounting (SAA) has merged with the existing office of University Research Administration (URA). This constitutes an organizational move from the Financial Services division to the Office of Research, Innovation, and National Laboratories, reporting directly to Michael R. Ludwig.
Processes for award acceptance, account management and project closeout have been redesigned for efficiency (e.g., eliminate hand-offs, improve cycle times, etc.) in order to provide better service to unit research administrators and faculty members across campus.
For more information on this organizational relaignment please visit URA's Research Admin Modernization page or email researchadmininput@uchicago.edu with your questions/comments.
