Contracts
Under The University of Â鶹´«Ã½’s Contract Administration Policy, there are two types of contracts:
- Personal contracts or private consultancies for research and other services negotiated between an individual and an external individual, agency or organization, which are not administered by the UÂ鶹´«Ã½ and are not approved by the Research Office. These contracts cannot use University resources and are not eligible for career progress. Researchers should review their Collective Agreement and speak with the Dean if they are seeking a personal contract or private consultancy.
- Research contracts or University contracts, which are administered by the University and are recognized for career progress. Any activities outside the normal teaching load and normal research which involve the use of the University name, University facilities (equipment, space, services), University-supported time, University-supported personnel, or the University accounting system and which meet the definition of “contract” as outlined in the institutional policy are considered contract activities. As such, they must be approved by the Office of the Vice-President, Research and Innovation and are subject to indirect cost charges.
If you are planning on entering into a research contract, please visit the Research Contracts and Agreements page on the for more information and contact the Research Office as soon as possible (researchoffice@uwinnipeg.ca).
