"How do I get my research funded?"
This is a frequently asked question by many faculty members, and the Office of Research Services is one of several UBC support units in place to help researchers find funding opportunities and develop winning proposals.
Visit the pages in this section to learn more about the many resources available to researchers, including:
- A Calendar of Funding Deadlines maintained by ORS, which lists the current and upcoming funding opportunities that are most frequently applied to by UBC researchers;
- Access to UBC's subscription to the powerful Community of Science funding database;
- The Grant Facilitation Network, a network of granting experts distributed across the faculties who offer varying levels of support from accounting to grant writing to strategic planning;
- Proposal development support from staff in the Office of Research Services, Support Programs to Advance Research Capacity (SPARC) Office, and VP Research & International Office; and
- Regular funding workshops tailored to specific disciplines and funding opportunities.
To arrange a research contract with members of industry or government, please contact the University-Industry Liaison Office.
