External Funding

One of the first questions that faculty members ask when deciding they want to obtain funding for research or a project is "How can I find funding?" Faculty members should review the Finding Funding page to see the possible online tools and major federal agency searches that are at their disposal.

After finding funders and submitting a completed Emerson College Proposal Pre-Approval Form, faculty members will need to prepare their proposal. The Office of Research and Creative Scholarship provides consultation and technical assistance with preparing proposals. Faculty members should meet with our office as early as possible in the process to determine the best course of action. The office provides links to several proposal writing guides, as well as information on developing a budget, subcontracts, and submitting proposals.
