Finding Funding
The SJSU Research Foundation's Research Communications team (formerly called Information Services) manages an array of resources for identifying possible funding for your project. The team is responsible for the identification and the dissemination of grant information to the university community. Research related information and funding opportunities are provided via email to funding alert subscribers and are posted by discipline on the website.
The Research Communications team also does the following:
- Conducts individualized funding searches upon request,
- Provides program guidelines and grant application materials, sponsoring agency updates, and information about changing trends in research,
- Coordinates grant-related workshops and webinars,
- Publishes the Research Foundation Insights Newsletter.
