ProQuest Pivot

ProQuest Pivot is a database of external funding opportunities for research, education, and other sponsored activities. It also allows users to create profiles of their background, education, experience, and research interests. These profiles are helpful in several ways: First, Pivot uses them to optimize the results from user searches. Second, it's a way for other people (at OU and at other institutions that use Pivot) to find you and learn about the work you do. You can also save searches and set up automatic reminders so you'll never miss a relevant opportunity.

Pivot

  • If you’ve not signed in to Pivot before, click “Create an account”; otherwise, click “Sign in,” and enter your OU email address and the password you created when you signed up.
  • To create an account, you must use your OU email address (the subscription is tied to the oakland.edu domain). However, you cannot log in with your OU NetID and password – use your OU email address in full, and select a password that you will remember.
