Faculty

Thinking about applying for a fellowship or research grant, but not sure where to start? The Grants and Sponsored Research team will introduce ourselves and the tools and resources we offer to all faculty applying for outside funding. We will provide an overview of the stages involved in grant seeking, with a focus on getting started: 1) determining how grants best fit into your long-term research plans; 2) identifying potential funding opportunities and application instructions; 3) framing your project in a way that is clear and compelling to non-specialists including funders; and 4) first steps toward building a proposal. This session may be especially helpful to those new to grant seeking, those who have not applied for external funding for some time, or those who have not previously applied for external funding at Smith. In partnership with Grants and Sponsored Research.
