Research Operations, Management & Strategy Fellowship
The Research Operations, Management & Strategy (ROMS) Fellowship (formerly known as the Research Administration Fellowship) is a two-year program designed to prepare Ph.D. graduates and postdoctoral trainees in the life sciences for a successful career in research administration through a series of unit rotations, hands-on learning experiences, and direct mentorship from leaders in the field. The fellowship leverages the extensive biomedical research enterprise at the University of Michigan Medical School (UMMS) to provide professional experience and skill-building in different aspects of research administration. Fellows learn to connect science and business competencies to engage in innovative projects that enhance biomedical research and have the opportunity to immediately participate in and directly add value to the Medical School research enterprise.
