External Funding Opportunities

Note about Limited Submissions

While most external funding opportunities are available to all faculty, some are available only on a limited and competitive basis. OSP maintains a list of these "limited submissions" on their website.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act

On February 17th, 2009, President Obama signed The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Stimulus Bill). The bill supports a number of activities of importance to The Ohio State University. This site will be continually updated to provide the research community with the latest information. Please check back often.

Community of Science (COS)

COS is the leading global resource for hard-to-find information critical to scientific research and other projects across all disciplines.

The Office of Funding and Research Development at OSP has developed customized funding search templates in COS for each of the six EHE schools and departments. Please click on links below:

Grants.gov

All discretionary grants offered by the 26 federal grant-making agencies can be found on Grants.gov. There are several ways to search the database, from simple keyword searches to searches by agency to more detailed inquiries. Grants.gov also provides a companion site, Tips and Resources from Grantors, that provides important information for faculty seeking external funding from the federal government.

GrantsNet

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) awards grants for more than 300 programs and has a budget of $250 billion, making it the largest grant-awarding agency in the Federal government. GrantsNet is designed to help the public navigate through DHHS’ multiple websites that provide information about grants.

National Institutes of Health (NIH)

NIH funds grants, cooperative agreements, and contracts that support the advancement of fundamental knowledge about the nature and behavior of living systems to meet the NIH missions of extending healthy life and reducing the burdens of illness and disability. While NIH awards many grants specifically for research, it also provides grant opportunities that support research-related activities, including: construction, training, career development, conferences, resource grants, and more. Learn about NIH grants.

National Science Foundation (NSF)

NSF promotes and advances scientific progress in the United States by competitively awarding grants and cooperative agreements for research and education in the sciences, mathematics, and engineering. Find funding opportunities on their website.

U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Cooperative State Research, Education, & Extension Service (CSREES)

Through grants offered by CSREES, the USDA enables researchers throughout the United States to solve problems critical to our farmers, consumers, and communities.
