Funding Search
Our current funding site may always be found at https://sites.google.com/ewu.edu/ogrd. This page is organized by disciplinary or subject categories; the page also includes OGRD announcements, workshops, and notice of awards.
There is much you can do to find potential funding. Before you start, consider these questions:
- What do you want to accomplish?
- What is the need for this project or research?
- Who will benefit from this project?
- What is your need for funding (salaries, equipment, travel)?
Start some online searches of professional organizations and associations in your field. Look at government agencies that fund other projects in your field. Check similar projects at other institutions to see who may have funded those projects.
