Code of conduct for applicants

We expect all applicants to adhere to a Code of Conduct as follows:

 

  • A clear condition of applying for an arc grant is that applicants should not approach the Chair or members of any committee either before or after the decision on the application. However, applicants may seek advice before applications are submitted by contacting Head Office who will direct their questions to the relevant Research Manager.
  • Any requests for further feedback on the outcome of any application, beyond that initially sent with the decision letter, and any complaints about the review process, should be directed to and will be handled by the relevant Research Manager. Any such request should be made in writing or sent by email.
  • arc will take very seriously any attempt to circumvent these processes.
