UW Help
with Funding
Hunting
for funding can be a perplexing, but two funding services
on campus can make your grant search more efficient and effective,
especially if you talk to them first. They can point out the
resources that will be the most helpful to you, pass along
tips and strategies for searching more effectively, alert
you to information that is not on the Web, and generally help
to set you on the right path through the funding thickets.
The
Research Funding Service
(RFS)
The RFS is a grants
information resource
for faculty, fellows,
and staff for the School
of Medicine, Public Health,
Social Work, Dentistry,
Pharmacy and Nursing.
We provide grantsmanship
information through a
comprehensive web site,
one-on-one consultations,
workshops, classes, Grant$
for Lunch programs, publications
and other public outreach
activities. RFS is co-sponsored
by the Office of Faculty
Development, University
of Washington School
of Medicine and the Health
Sciences Libraries and
Information Center.
The
Grants and Funding Information
Service (GFIS)
The GFIS provides
help identifying resources
for external funding
for graduate students
(masters and doctoral
level) who have been
admitted to or who are
attending the University
of Washington. GFIS offers
workshops and individual
consultations explaining
print and online resources
available for students
to search. GFIS does
not provide search services
for students, but rather
provides guidance in
learning searching skills
and direction as to which
materials might offer
a better chance of finding
a useful funding source.
Program

The
Office of Sponsored
Programs
website lists program

links to major

UW. This site also
includes a link

Limited Submission Opportunities
The Office of Research lists Limited Submission Opportunities Programs, which are grants, awards and fellowships that limit the number of applications that can come from one institution. The listings include details about such programs available to faculty at the University of Washington and are posted as as they are identified.
