The Elm

As the pool of funding becomes increasingly competitive, private foundations and other non-government grants can fund research, fill funding gaps during lean times, keep work going while a principal investigator applies for government funds, or support a pilot project designed to obtain data necessary to compete for larger grants. This session at noon Aug. 18 will highlight how UMB faculty, staff, and students can use Pivot, a grants database, to find and apply for funding opportunities. This session will focus on Pivot, but it will also cover tips on searching for grants, as well as helpful information on how to evaluate whether a grant opportunity is right for you.
