MU-ADVANCE understood that to be a successful researcher, a person needed to know how to write grant proposals and administer the grant once it was received. MU-ADVANCE also understood that the grant-writing process is a bit esoteric and, therefore, guidance is often appreciated. With that in mind, MU-ADVANCE, along with the Marshall University Research Corporation and the Cell Differentiation and Development Center, hosted a series of Grant Chats to introduce grant-writing winning strategies. Below is a list of the Grant Chats offered, along with their associated materials.
Grant Chats - Fall 2008/Spring 2009
The February Grant Chat: WV Space Grant Consortium and EPSCoR Proposal Preparation will be held on Feb. 20 at 3:00 p.m. in Drinko Library 138. This hands-on workshop will be held in a computer lab to offer assistance for faculty writing WV Space Grant Consortium (WVSGC), NASA-EPSCoR, or WV-EPSCoR grant proposals due in March 2009 (featured in the January Grant Chat). Faculty should bring a draft of their proposal and proposal budget. The January Grant Chat: Small Grant Opportunities, held on Friday, January 23, at 2:00 in BBSC 102, focused on support provided by the West Virginia Space Grant Consortium and the WV-EPSCoR Office. Both offer support for student scholarships, travel, outreach, seed money, research, and collaborative projects. More information...
