  3. Budget Development– Nov. 1
  4. Finding Grant Funding – Nov. 8
  5. Post Award Management – Nov. 15

Learning Outcomes

After completing the series, faculty should have the knowledge, skills, and abilities to:

  • Interface with available resources at the university to assist them with grant development.
  • Initiate an exploration of available funding, internal and external to the university.
  • Understand expectations laid out in application guidelines and write responsive proposals.
  • Construct budgets and budget justifications to support the activities outlined in a proposal.
  • Project personal resources and time allocation to successfully manage a grant.

Eligibility
