The Office of Corporate, Foundation, and Sponsored Research Support assists Knox faculty and staff in developing funding partnerships with corporate, foundation, organization/association, and government competitive granting programs. Our goal is simple: to help faculty and staff seek, apply for, secure, administer, and steward external grants for the benefit of the College, its students, faculty and staff, programs, and overall mission.
In recent years, Knox College has been awarded competitive institutional grants from funders such as the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the National Science Foundation, and the Hearst Foundations. Knox faculty have secured awards to support research, scholarship, creative work, and teaching from organizations such as the National Science Foundation, the Illinois Humanities Council, the U.S. Fulbright Commission, National Institutes of Health, Association of American Colleges and Universities, and the American Chemical Society Petroleum Research Fund.
The grants office is here to help you find grant opportunities, apply for grants, manage and steward grants, and develop your grant expertise.
The grant process begins when you complete and submit the College's required External Grant Authorization form, which is routed to the Vice President for Finance and Administrative Services and the Provost / Dean of the College. Please contact us as far in advance as possible, especially if you need assistance with your application.
Corporate, Foundation, and Sponsored Program Support is your partner in grant seeking.
