Funding Databases
UNC Charlotte offers access to several databases to locate funding. Pivot is a subscription service for faculty and staff with research responsibilities. Here’s a quick Pivot Start Guide. The Grants Resource Center (GRC) offers tools to help you secure competitive grants from federal and private sponsors.
Limited Submission Programs
For programs in which more faculty express interest than are allowed by the program to submit, the Center for Research Excellence will screen eligible and interested proposals to select those to be submitted. Here are our procedures for Limited Submission Programs.
External Funding Opportunities
