Jill Ferguson will provide an overview of the Maxwell Research Office, which assists faculty members and other researchers in locating funding opportunities and planning proposals; mapping research strategic plans; finding collaborators and building research teams; managing large, complex proposals; and coordinating with institutional research administration and leadership.

Additionally, the office supports Maxwell’s departmental research administrators in proposal development and grants management and manages numerous internal-grant programs that reflect the Maxwell School’s longstanding commitment to supporting faculty and student research and the production of exceptional scholarship.
