TIPS:
Please make sure to contact the business office for any questions regarding purchases, travel or reimbursements. It is ALWAYS a good idea to contact your grants manager prior to booking a trip so that you are familiar with the University policies and procedures. If possible each lab should have at least 1 person who should have access in the BEN system to submit requisitions/orders for the lab.
