On Monday 28 November 2022, applying for project funding will move to an online portal called Pure.
Accessed by the ‘Staff Applications’ page on the UNE Intranet, Pure will house all current awards and provide end to end funding applications.
This change affects all Researchers, Funding application reviewers, pre-approvers and approvers.
Familiarisation sessions are now being held. Please see the Pure Intranet page for session times and meeting links.
Important information regarding funding applications
- For a list of Funding Opportunities, from Monday 28 November please see the Pure ‘Funding Opportunities’ module
- The project approval form via RME is no longer available.
- Applications for project funding cannot be accepted until Monday 28 Nov using the new online system.
- See the Pure page on Monday 28 for a link to access the system
- For any centrally-submitted applications (ie. where Grants is the submitter), an approved Pure Application is required prior to submission. If there are compelling circumstances where exceptions are required, the lead UNE researcher should secure approval from the ADR as a ‘place-holder’ for the submission, while the Pure Application can then be completed retrospectively.
- As much information as possible should be included by researchers in their Pure applications. Items such as coding (Type of Activity, FOR codes, SEO codes) are critical pieces of information for UNE, and used for ERA and a range of other government reporting. If Pure applications do not include sufficient information, they will be returned to the researcher for further input.
- All research funding submissions, whether UNE is the lead applicant or a project partner, and whether UNE is receiving an allocation of the project budget or not, require a Pure application.
