For Faculty

How We Can Help You

Our team can work with you to understand your goals for collaboration, develop a plan and facilitate engagement with a target foundation or corporation.

Our goal is to provide assistance that connects the business and non-profit community with our campus resources and expertise, and support long-term, holistic relationships with private foundations and corporations.

Services

Our team provides a number of services to assist faculty and researchers seeking partnership and investment from corporations and foundations.

We can help you:

  • Research and identify potential corporate or foundation partners.
  • Align research interests based on specific projects or concepts.
  • Work with a school or college-based development officer to coordinate activities that advance institutional priorities.
  • Coordinate written materials such as concept summaries, letters of inquiry or proposals.
  • Facilitate conversations with foundations and companies.

Contact Us

We ask that you please contact our staff before engaging in detailed conversations or submission-of-funding if:

  • You are interested in contacting a funder on the Chancellor’s Prospect List.
  • You have a project that may be appropriate for funding from non-governmental organizations.

Please also contact your unit’s development staff.
