Applying for funding is an integral part of life as a graduate student, and working as a professional academic or researcher. Although you may be experienced in writing about your research, selection committees are often composed of experts in their field and beyond, but they may not be specialists in your area of research. This interactive workshop will offer participants a chance to reflect on questions of audience and purpose so as to write more effective research proposals for fellowship applications.
Participants will learn:
- how to develop a clear articulation of proposed research
- how to frame the significance of the research
- strategies to structure the proposal effectively
You will have the opportunity to review and discuss sample proposals from a range of fields, and begin or refine your own proposal.
