SPIN Database

SPIN is a computerized database of funding opportunities (federal, nonfederal, and corporate) designed to assist faculty and administrators in the identification of external support for research, education, and development projects. Computerized searches can save you many hours of manual searching through volumes of outdated printed material. The information provided by a SPIN search enables researchers to quickly and efficiently determine what funding is currently available and how it can be obtained. The SPIN database catalogues over 6,000 current programs of interest.
