Funders Electronic Submission Systems

Many funders now operate electronic systems (e-Systems) for the submission of applications (and in some cases, for award management). These will require applicants (PI’s and/or lead organisations, if the proposal is collaborative), to have a registered account on their e-System, and for the institution where the applicant is based to verify and submit the proposal. In applying for funding, you should therefore familiarise yourself with the funder’s submission system and ensure that you (and the University) is setup to use it. If you and/or the University is not yet registered, please ensure you do not leave this too close to the submission deadline as this can take some time to setup.

A list of major research funders with links to their e-System is set out below:
