University of Connecticut researchers now have access to Pivot, the most comprehensive search engine for grant funding available - with 26,000 funding opportunities worth an estimated $33 billion. In this hands-on workshop you'll learn how to use Pivot to search for funding opportunities, and establish funding alerts to automatically let you know when new grants become available in your field.
