Research
B-W subscribes to the IRIS Database that contains over 8,000 active federal and private funding opportunities in the sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities. Users can search IRIS by sponsor, deadline date, keyword, and other criteria. It is updated daily. The IRIS Alert Service enables researchers at subscribing institutions to create their own IRIS search profiles. Researchers can select their preferred search frequency, delivery method (e-mail or Web), and keywords. The program runs the researcher's profile against the IRIS database and delivers the search results automatically via e-mail or the Web. NOTE: The IRIS Database can only be accessed from College computers.
