Project Director Responsibilities

Serving in the role of Project Director (PD) on a sponsored project is a privilege that carries both significant benefits and responsibilities. The PD is defined as the individual(s) judged by the College to have the appropriate level of authority and responsibility to direct the project or program supported by the grant.

To qualify as a PD, an individual must personally participate to a significant intellectual degree in the sponsored project. The PD, typically the author of a proposal for a specific scope of work, bears primary responsibility for all essential aspects of the work being carried out, including a project’s technical or programmatic requirements, compliance with applicable policies and regulations, and administrative tasks.

Although the College is the legal recipient of sponsored project funds, it is the PD who initiates the application and assumes the responsibility for overall project management. While the PD retains primary responsibility for financial accountability, the PD may delegate financial tasks to a business unit administrator or other authorized personnel. In any event, project budgets must be managed by persons trained in these responsibilities. PD responsibilities are outlined below.
