Proposal Writing: An Introductory Workshop

The Moynihan Institute’s consortium of regional centers is pleased to present a workshop to introduce the key elements of proposal writing for students applying to its graduate student research grants.

The workshop will review best practices for writing successful grant proposals in general, but tailored for the Moynihan Institute’s graduate student research grants. If you plan to submit a proposal for one of these grants, be sure to take advantage of this opportunity!

The awards are competitive with research relating to dissertations or final graduate theses/projects receiving priority. In addition to the general promise of the research question, proposals will be judged on the basis of (i) the quality of the proposed research, (ii) the organization and thoughtfulness of the proposal, and (iii) the appropriateness and feasibility of the research plan in relation to the student’s background and qualifications.
