External Research Funding Resources

The Office of Research and Graduate Studies monitors external funding agencies to share potential resources to support your research work. While it’s not comprehensive, it presents some options to explore when seeking support for research. If you are considering external funding sources, be sure to consult with the team at the research office, as there is a four-week internal deadline to allow internal review and administrative process.
