Hi, is it okay if the official request letter is signed by our research coordinator and institute director instead of the department chair and dean?
The project is formally under the Ateneo Institute of Anthropology, which is a research institute in Ateneo de Davao, so it's not directly supervised by a department chair and dean but by a research coordinator and institute director.
I hope this works. Thanks!
