Resources for Faculty
Grant Search Engine
Faculty may find this service helpful. It uses AI to link your published works to grant opportunities. Under the search option, simply enter your name and you will see a list of works authored by you or someone with the same name, and simply select a paper you have written. The search engine will then identify current funding opportunities, and it will list the opportunities by relevance. Any relevance scores above 35 are considered highly relevant. Note: you may be required to “Sign Up” for an account.
