A keyword is a term that describes the discipline of a sponsored project (for example, sustainable agriculture or children's literature).
Keywords are associated with a specific sponsored project proposal and they help to identify the type of research project being conducted. Knowing the topic of a proposal may provide reports about an institution’s research and sponsored projects enterprise.
In proposal development, the Keywords lookup goes against the Keywords Table. These values can be institution-specific. Selecting the "Add" button opens the Select Keyword Code table window.
