Bridge Funding Support

The UO VPRI Bridge Funding Support program helps ensure the continuation of research projects that have a demonstrated likelihood of continued federal funding. It is intended to support the research activities of projects for which no other funding resources are immediately available.


Please fill out the form and upload the required application materials. Note that this form cannot be saved and submitted at a later date.


Deadline: Rolling - note that applications must be submitted at least 3 months before active sponsored funding ends.

Eligibility

Faculty are eligible to apply who have both full-time, tenure track appointments or career appointments in the research professor or research associate tracks with an expectation of ongoing employment at the UO and demonstrated sponsored funding history as PIs.


Note: Bridge funding is only available to eligible applicants seeking to maintain essential staff and operations during the period between the conclusion of an award and anticipated funding (i.e., must have pending grants under review).

Category of Research*

UO is now required to categorize all internally funded research activities as either basic, applied or experimental. If you are unclear as to which research category to choose, please review the definitions and examples at the following: https://research.uoregon.edu/plan/find-funding/ovpri-internal-funding-opportunities#researchtypes For those faculty who reviewed the definitions/examples and are still unclear as to which category to choose, please send a query to rds@uoregon.edu.

If applicable.

Please attach all the required materials in a single PDF application.
