R&I launches revamped Funding Opportunities website

News for Researchers

Posted October 3, 2025 by Dan Moser

The Office of Research and Innovation has recently redesigned its Funding Opportunities website.  

The website features a new table format, allowing users to navigate potential funding options more easily. UNL faculty, staff and administrators can now filter opportunities by sponsor name, sponsor type, category, limited submission designation, sponsor deadline and keywords.  

These filtering capabilities are now available on all related web pages, including Active Limited Submission Competitions page and the new Archived Opportunities page.  

The archive enables UNL members to review opportunities previously advertised in Funding Announcements whose original deadline has passed. This web page seeks to expand general awareness of the funding landscape by highlighting past, annual and private funding opportunities.  

The Funding Opportunities website is populated by Funding Announcements, a weekly list of funding opportunities curated for and emailed to members of the Nebraska research community. With over 1,400 subscribers, including faculty, administrators and staff, these announcements aim to keep the UNL community informed of limited submission competitions, external funding opportunities and internal funding opportunities.  

For more information or to subscribe to Funding Announcements, contact Jackson Hardin, funding opportunity coordinator, 402-472-0387.
