Search for Funding Opportunities
OSU has secured an institutional license for Pivot-RP by Clarivate, a human-curated search engine with thousands of external funding opportunities across all disciplines (including grants, fellowships, prizes/awards, travel funds, and more). See: https://clarivate.com/academia-government/
Anyone with an 'okstate.edu' email address (faculty, students, and staff) can create an account and access it. Pivot-RP includes opportunities for researchers and artists at all levels (i.e., undergraduate students through those with established careers).
Pivot-RP allows for browsing and filtering opportunity lists, as well as creating customized keyword-based searches for opportunities sent automatically to your email Inbox weekly.
Create an Account
Go to https://Pivot.proquest.com and click the “Create account” option, selecting “Use Email Address/Create Password” which provides access to Pivot-RP. Please use your 'okstate.edu' email address. You can log in from anywhere, no VPN is required. (We anticipate that during spring 2025, you will be able to use your Okey credentials for a single sign-on process in Pivot-RP.)
