The Research Development Office can assist faculty in finding research funding opportunities. Contact Beth Cassedy or Tish Attayek if you would like assistance.  Also, we regularly send education related funding opportunities to interested College of Education faculty and staff.  To subscribe to the College of Education Funding Listserv send an email request to Tish Attayek.

Because many funding opportunities are annual, it can be useful to see the grant programs that were announced via the listserv over the course of a year so you can start planning next year’s proposals.
