Funding Sources

Community of Science Funding Opportunities Database

To assist campus researchers in identify funding opportunities, we subscribe as an institution to the Community of Science's Funding Opportunities database. You do not need a login id or password to use the service, since the UA subscription is keyed to the UA's range of IP address. Begin your familiarity with the COS site by visiting the Frequently Asked Questions link and the User Guide

Community of Science also offers a feature called COS Workbench. All individuals can access this feature and use it to manage the information gathered from COS in a useful manner.

IRIS - Illinois Research Information System

UA also subscribes as an institution to the Illinios Research Information System. You do not need a login id or password to use the service.

In addition to the very good funding database, it also offers an alert service which allows you to create your own IRIS search profile. Your search profile will be run automatically at specified intervals and will alert you to upcoming funding opportunities in your areas of interest.
