DoIT Supports Kent State's R1 Status by Creating App to Track $2M in Grant Money
The future of tracking internal grant money within the university is here, and it presents a brand-new way of managing funds distributed to professors and organizations. In partnership with the division of Research and Economic Development, the Division of Information Technology has created a fund-tracking app to trace the path of grant spending.
As an R1 school, Kent State has the highest “status for research” recognition that doctoral universities can receive. This distinction was partly given due to Kent State’s funding for research.
