Internal approvals

Internal approval is split between Application-stage approval and Contract-stage approval forms:

Application-stage approvals are completed when a researcher is applying for a research grant. They consist of: 

• Proposal approval forms (for full applications and preliminary applications that require a budget breakdown)
• South African Medical Research Council Self-Initiated Research Grants Approval form
• Poliomyelitis Research Foundation Approval form

Contract-stage approvals are applicable when a researcher is awarded a research contract from a funder or arising from a commissioned/consultancy/industry-led contract that did not go through an application-stage approval process.
