Research Administration Report Portal (VPRPT) is a Web-based system developed by UTA Research Administration for reporting, administration, as well as compliance monitoring and data collection. VPRPT can be accessed through Mentis (Grant Management -> Report Portal) or directly through UTA Single Sign On. Periodically, VPRPT System (vprpt_sys@uta.edu) will send email notifications (e.g., for report updates), using email subject starting with '[VPRPT]'.

VPRPT reports have University, College/Unit, Department, and Individual views when appropriate. Detail information is included in department and individual views.
