Faculty Consultations
Targeted funding opportunities
We’ll help you find the
most promising governmental agency,
foundation,
and private support in your research
areas; suggest ways to assemble
funding from multiple sources;
add your name
to listservs to keep you informed
of relevant calls for proposals;
and make you aware of the latest
on-line resources.
Agency-specific information
Find out about agency
characteristics,
issues, funding trends, and recent
changes—including leadership,
procedures, and new initiatives—and
about whom to contact, when to
do it, and how; plus helpful
strategies to build relationships.
Potential collaborators
Based on your research interests,
we’ll suggest investigators
across the disciplines whose
research is complementary or
otherwise potentially useful
to you and provide information
about initiatives or events that
may be in the works.
Relevant workshops, conferences,
and sponsor visits
In addition to helping you gather
support for hosting a conference
or suggesting useful campus events,
we can help you build critical
relationships with potential sponsors
by identifying appropriate program
officers at different agencies
and organizations.
New faculty consultations
If
you’re
new
to
UCSB,
you
are cordially invited to meet with
Carla Whitacre, director of research
development, and Jackie Hunt,
research development officer, to
learn about the many funding-related
services in the Office of Research.
We’ll
tell
you
about
funding
opportunities that match your research
needs, suggest potential collaborators,
and point you toward pertinent
events such as federal agency and
National Laboratory visits. We’ll
also introduce you to the Sponsored
Projects team, who will consult
with you about how
to prepare your proposal, submit
proposals, process your award—and
guide you on matters of materials
transfer, patents, copyrights,
and licensing. To set up a meeting,
contact Jackie Hunt at
x8891 or hunt@research.ucsb.edu. |
