Grant Writing Next Steps: A Proposal Workshop for Faculty – Day 2

Registration is full. Please contact Jamie Saville ([email protected]) to be added to the waitlist.

This two-part workshop will help you kickstart your summer proposal writing goals by providing grant writing best practices, grant writing techniques, as well as some brief feedback on your proposal Specific Aims/Project Objectives.

By the end of the second day, you will have a roadmap for your proposal to submit to a program manager for feedback, as well as techniques for tackling each section of your proposal.

The workshop will be focused on non-NIH proposals (e.g. DoE, NSF, foundations) in any field (i.e. humanities, social sciences, STEM).

Presenter:  Jocelyn Stitt, Ph.D.
Program Director for Faculty Research Development
Institute for Research on Women & Gender

Workshop schedule:

Day 2 (May 8): We will group you with those whose overviews you read so that you can discuss the feedback. When we regroup, we will discuss what has been helpful and what questions you have going forward. We will review examples of how and why external grants were successful.

Registration requirements include:

• Commit to participate both days: May 1 and May 8, 10am – 10:50am
• Submit a one-page draft of your proposal Specific Aims or Project Objectives by April 27.
• These will be read by colleagues who will provide feedback based on questions provided by presenter. (If you are writing a grant to a foundation, the presenter will contact you with information on what to submit)
• Commit 20 minutes on your own, between Day 1 and Day 2, to review one-page drafts from two fellow participants.
