Writing research applications and grant proposals

In this workshop, you will learn how to:

1. Interpret correctly your application form and evaluation criteria;
2. Use strong structure in the key proposal sections: State of the Art, Objectives, and Methodology;
3. Provide clear, convincing answers to the key requirements of novelty, feasibility, research significance and impact;
4. Make a persuasive description of your expertise, research environment, and collaborations; 
5. Write an attractive abstract that conveys your key messages.
6. Restructure your academic CV to maximise on your strengths.

Exercises in this workshop are based on excerpts from open-access, recently funded grants. They provide examples of best practice and fresh ideas that worked well for other scholars.
