Following on from previous blogs, I wanted to remind you that the deadline for submitting research outcomes to the Research Outcomes System (ROS) is Monday 30 April 2012
ROS is the web-based system through which the holders of grants awarded by AHRC, BBSRC, EPSRC and ESRC are required to report the research outcomes resulting from those grants. ROS is available all year round for submitting research outcomes, but every January to March (extended to April in this first year) we will be conducting an annual exercise to encourage submissions. For this first collection period outcomes should be submitted for grants that are currently in ROS and:
- started more than 12 months ago, or
- have ended, but a final report has not been submitted, or
- a final report has been submitted and relevant information has been transferred to ROS by a Research Council on your behalf.
The Research Councils are working to transfer all relevant final report information into ROS. If you have already completed a final report, please wait until that information is in ROS before adding any new or additional outcomes. Individual Research Councils will contact you when this information is ready to review in ROS.
ROS is available at www.rcuk.ac.uk/researchoutcomes and you can log-in using your Je-S account details.
A set of frequently asked questions and a number of video tutorials about ROS and how to use it are available on our website here. If you would like any further information or have any questions, please email us at: researchoutcomes@rcuk.ac.uk
