Research Services Transformation Project (RSTP)
The Research Services Transformation Project (RSTP) is reviewing research support services across the University. The project was endorsed by the Vice Chancellor's Executive (VCE) in late 2016 and aligns with the University's goal of simplifying support services. Our goal is to work cohesively to support RMIT research and researchers.
