Career Development

One of the most essential writing genres for a graduate student to master is one that is rarely formally taught: grant/fellowship applications. Because every grant/fellowship has its own style, this workshop on January 23 will focus on larger genre concerns, such as how to identify your audience, how to make your work sound important, and how to figure out what a particular agency is looking to fund.

One of the most essential writing genres for a graduate student to master is one that is rarely formally taught: grant/fellowship applications. This is a problem because these applications drive research. In this workshop, participants will be provided with an overview of what goes into writing a successful application. Because every grant/fellowship has its own style, this workshop will focus on larger genre concerns, such as how to identify your audience, how to make your work sound important, and how to figure out what a particular agency is looking to fund. This way, participants will have a foundation to approach any grant/fellowship.
