Internal Pitt Funding Programs

Internal Pitt Funding Programs

Pitt Momentum Funds

The Pitt Momentum Funds are the University's internal research funding mechanism and are awarded in three different tiers:

  • Priming Grants—support significant and innovative scholarship by individual or groups of faculty at all ranks at the University of Pittsburgh, with a particular focus on early career faculty and areas where external funding is extremely limited.
  • Teaming Grants—support the formation of new multi-disciplinary collaborations to successfully pursue large-scale external funding.
  • Scaling Grants—enable multi-disciplinary teams to competitively scale their research efforts in targeted pursuit of large-scale external funding.

Competitive Medical Research Fund (CMRF)

The CMRF program provides funds for junior, independent scientists to develop the preliminary data and refinement of procedures and hypotheses that will enable the submission of highly competitive applications to national funding sources.

Health Sciences Bridge Funding Program

The Bridge Funding Program provides funds to faculty members within the six schools of the health sciences to support a project that has a high probability of receiving external funding, but has yet to be funded.
