The Broad School provides grants to faculty, doctoral students, and staff for curriculum development, professional development, and research.

The Broad School also has a long-standing tradition of receiving external grants that help leverage other forms of funding provided to the school for research, teaching, and outreach activities (e.g., public funding, contracts, corporate support). The grants come from various agencies (e.g., National Science Foundation, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, U.S. Department of Commerce, U.S. Department of Education, U.S. Department of State), corporations (e.g., AT Kearney, Dow Chemical, FedEx, Hershey Foods, IBM, Nabisco, UPS, Whirlpool), and associations (e.g., Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals, Institute of Supply Management, Marketing Science Institute).
