Scholarships & Grants

External Funding

Here is an introductory list of external funding sources. We envision this list growing over time as faculty share resources with one another.

• GFU Grant Opportunities Dashboard (managed by Advancement Office)

• The Lilly Network of Church-Related Colleges and Universities |  provides our faculty with opportunities for professional development, research collaboration, and institutional grants aimed at strengthening the intersection of Christian faith and academic vocation. 

• CCCU Grant | Supports a range of faculty and campus grants for networking, community engagement, Christian leadership, STEM, and innovation.

• NSF Grants | Supports research and education across science and engineering.

• Franklin Research Grants | Small research grants from the American Philosophical Society. (Targeted at early career scholars.)

• Career Enhancement Fellowship | For junior scholars who expand diversity in the arts and humanities.

From the faculty handbook: Members of the faculty and administration are encouraged to seek outside funds for instructional improvement, program development, and research. Plans to solicit funds from any outside source must be approved by and coordinated with the Office of Advancement before solicitation.
