The new KUnet portal is designed to give scientists an overview of external funding, expenses, and individual wages. And all data can also be exported to Excel for budget planning etc.<\/p>\n
“The portal allows scientists to keep track of their numbers in real time, whenever they have the time and need,\u201d says Karen Kondrup, head of the project. \u201cIt\u2019s just a service from us. It\u2019s not obligatory to use it and it doesn\u2019t involve a load of extra work. Try it and see what you think. It can make your daily work easier.”<\/p>\n
It isn’t possible to pay bills or transfer funds via My Project Overview, but it\u2019s an easy and speedy way to keep track of your research finances, she adds.<\/p>\n
My Project Overview has been a year in the making, with a group of scientists guiding its form, content and user interface. Kirsten J\u00f8rgensen, Section Head and Associate Professor at the Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, has helped develop the portal, and is happy with the result. She is managing projects of approximately DKK 60 million and with 35 employees for a professor at her department.<\/p>\n
“Now I can keep an eye on costs, how much is left, and whether the right people are attached to the project. This is important when it comes to pay, as we always have new hirings and re-hirings,” she says.<\/p>\n
“Scientists at the University of Copenhagen have requested a tool to get an overview of their funding. Now we\u2019ve developed a new portal in collaboration with our scientists, and I\u2019m glad to see that we already have the first 300 scientists using it,” says Thomas Bj\u00f8rnholm, Prorector for Research and Innovation.<\/p>\n
