Federal Updates
The Sustainability Research Hub (the Hub) is a research development office that supports sustainability research on campus through a range of proposal development services to help faculty obtain funding. We also offer network building and resource sharing in service of a vibrant, connected sustainability research community. Our team works collaboratively across campus to support faculty in all departments and disciplines.
For those seeking administrative support to pursue large grants, we offer a variety of services. With base funding from the Chancellor, the Hub provides campus-wide service without charging fees or retaining any overhead. As the Hub increases the number and size of sustainability research awards, it will also create new opportunities for undergraduate and graduate research in sustainability.
The Hub also serves as a source of connection and coordination for projects with external partners. Our staff will work closely with the University Relations and their Office of Business Engagement to help connect UW-Madison PIs with appropriate corporate, governmental, NGO, or other external partners for their proposals.
