National Research Administrator Day is observed annually on September 25. This is a day to recognize the contributions made by administrators every day.

Research Administrators and Managers serve an important role in supporting research. They serve the faculty and researchers, protect the institution or organization and assure sound stewardship of sponsored research dollars. Research Administration is found in many types of organizations around the world. It’s in higher education from liberal arts colleges to research universities, health and medical institutions, research institutions, federal and both for-profit and non-profit organizations.

Starting with a small number of individuals in the late 1940s until present day, with thousands of acknowledged professionals world-wide, research administrators and managers provide value and expertise to the global research enterprise.
