WMN+ Summer Grantwriting Incubator Workshop 

Program Goals

The goal of this Grantwriting Incubator Workshop is to prepare graduate students, junior faculty, new faculty (since 2019) to the UofM, and new principal investigators (PIs) from any department to submit a funding proposal (either internal to the UofM, or external). By the end of the 10 week workshop, participants will have a complete (or near-complete) proposal to submit.

Partnership

Participants will work collaboratively with a partner of their choosing who will provide content area expertise, mentorship, and feedback throughout the 10 weeks. The partnership contract will be for the duration of the 10 weeks, and the partner may or may not ultimately be listed on the final grant submission. The PI and partner will identify their goals and deliverables and define the scope of the partnership (limited to, or going beyond the workshop). The partner will be available to do some of the following: answer questions; provide content area expertise; proofread drafts; and offer encouragement and support.

Deliverables

Participants will submit components of their grant throughout the course of the 10 week program via the Canvas platform, and give a final presentation to the other participants during Class 10.
