Purchasing

The ability to purchase items is essential for the conduct of your research. You may purchase research/laboratory supplies and equipment from both on-campus and off-campus sources. It will be important for you to know information regarding your research project's funding before you place orders. You will be assigned account codes assigned to the project (grant, contract, etc.) on which you are working. Please do not share these codes with other people.
