This is a very short, unrepresentative list of funding opportunities. It only reflects those hard copy RFPs that have been received by my office in the last month or so. A more comprehensive list of current funding opportunities can be found on the IU Granstline. You can also search for funding opportunities using keywords from COS.
Internal funding deadlines are 4 February 2000 and 7 April 2000. Guidelines can be found at http://www.iusb.edu/~research/RDComm.html.

IU now subscribes to the Community of Science/Community of Scholars database system.
