Proposal Development

     Research Guide for TIE Fellowship

Tisch Science Resource and Instruction Librarian Regina Raboin created this guide as a starting point for your funding search. It contains citation tools, aids to create an annotated bibliography, and databases for researching your project idea as well as other funding sources. Regina is also an excellent resource and can be reached at regina.raboin@tufts.edu or 617-627-4221.
