Foundations in Wisconsin 

向日葵视频's Raynor Library annually publishes Foundations in Wisconsin: A Directory. It is the only directory of its kind which covers every active grant making foundation in the state of Wisconsin. The foundation profiles include contact information, total assets, grants paid, and areas of interest. It is available in both print and online formats. The database is updated on a monthly basis. Please note this database is only available on campus or through Marquette's secure VPN.

 

Other Wisconsin Funding Opportunities

Individual applications and awards, such as fellowships, are opportunities received directly by individuals, rather than through the university. Because no funds are coming directly to the university, individuals will be responsible for all tax-related reporting.

These opportunities are significant endeavors and should be recognized. Faculty and students are strongly encouraged to work with the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs to facilitate a successful application and to register individual application and award activity into the Kuali database. 

Additional opportunities beyond Fulbright and other fellowships listed below can be found via the database.

New investigators are the innovators of the future - they bring fresh ideas and technologies to existing research problems and topics, and they pioneer new areas of investigation. Entry of new investigators into the ranks of independent, funded researchers is essential to the health of this country鈥檚 research and education enterprise.

ESIs are new investigators who are within 10 years of completing their terminal research degree or within 10 years of completing their medical residency at the time they apply for R01 grants.

The NIH Center for Scientific Review (CSR) ECR program was developed to train qualified scientists without prior CSR review experience to become effective reviewers, help emerging researchers advance their careers by exposing them to peer review, and enrich the existing pool of NIH reviewers by including scientists from less research-intensive institutions as well as those from traditionally research-intensive.

The Faculty Early Career Development Program is a Foundation-wide activity that offers the National Science Foundation's most prestigious awards in support of junior faculty who exemplify the role of teacher-scholars through outstanding research, excellent education and the integration of education and research within the context of the mission of their organizations.  Faculty must be untenured until October 1 following the deadline to be eligible and may only apply 3 times.
