Finding Funding

Who might be interested in funding my research/creative project?

This is often the first question faculty pose as they begin the grant writing process. OSPR is here to help you answer this question using a variety of online tools.

Although each of these tools provides basic summary information (deadlines etc), you are encouraged to follow-up on any leads by visiting the sponsor’s website directly. Databases, while helpful, may not always have the latest updates from every sponsor.

SPIN Searchable Database

This database of funding opportunities (maintained by Infoed International) and available to all USNH employees offers the following functionality:

  • Search by simple keywords.
  • Advanced searches limited by criteria of importance to you (sponsor type, citizenship requirements, etc.).
  • Set up email alerts to come to your in-box when a new opportunity meeting your criteria is posted.
  • OSPR will provide individual or group training for new users of the database, if desired. Please contact Penny Miceli to schedule an appointment.
