Research Funding Sources
There are two primary categories of funding opportunities, external and internal. External funding opportunities are available through federal sponsors, state sponsors, and private foundations. To assist you in identifying external funding opportunities, the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs provides all members of the UMass Boston community with access to external funding opportunities databases.
