PROPOSAL WRITING WORKSHOP |
| |
This workshop will focus on writing a proposal
that will be rewarded with external funding. This process
involves careful planning, proper organization, and close
attention to details about format and submission deadlines.
However, even if these matters are handled well, the proposal
must be well-written if it is to be successful. Your writing
must be clear, descriptive, and persuasive. The PROPOSAL
WRITING workshop is scheduled for Friday, March 24th, 2006 from
9:00- Noon at Thomas Cooper Library, Level 3 Multi-Media

RESEARCH EDUCATION SERIES (RES) |
| |
The Research Education Series (RES) consists
of monthly workshops developed specifically for USC faculty and
conducted in various venues. Although focused on topics of
special interest to faculty, RES workshops are also open to
staff and graduate students.
Foundation Funding is the next seminar in the Research
Education Series. It is sometimes easier to request funding
from foundations, as they have continuous deadlines, prefer
concept papers to full proposals and have more informal
guidelines. However, receiving foundation funding can be
challenging as foundations are much more competitive than
federal sponsors and many foundations require universities to
cultivate a relationship to compete in this environment. This
workshop is scheduled for Thursday, March 30, 2006 from 10:30 -
11:30 a.m. in the Byrnes Building Conference Room 513.
