There are many ways to access information on research funding opportunities. BU subscribes to Research Professional, which all academics should have an account for. The RKEO Funding Development Team provides a weekly round-up of the latest funding opportunities on the Research Blog.
RKEO have now gone one step further and have provided a list of external research and knowledge exchange funders which can be found on the Research Toolkit under Research Funder’s Guide.
This contains sections on Research Councils, Charities, UK Government, Horizon 2020 and other Overseas funders’. The links go directly to the funders’ web pages, including links to their latest funding opportunities, strategic plans, impact reports, etc. Have a browse and see what you can find. If there are other links that you would find useful then do let me know: jgarrad@bournemouth.ac.uk
