Foundation Relations Requests Input in a New Faculty Survey
Foundation Relations seeks faculty input to help improve their services. The survey assess topics like the supports faculty use most often, and which of their services they find most helpful. Please consider completing their survey by September 18th.
The Boston University Foundation Relations team, within the Office of Advancement, helps faculty identify, apply for, secure, and steward charitable gifts and grants from private philanthropic foundations and nongovernmental organizations. They match faculty research and programs with foundations’ priorities, which are often to support pilot projects and high-risk research that may not be attractive to traditional funders such as NIH and NSF.
Additional details about how they work can be found in this overview and their tips for success in securing grants are available here.
