Overview of Department of Education Funding Today
The research funding workshop series hosted by the Division of Research and Innovation continues at 3:30 p.m. today, Thursday, Dec. 1, with an overview of the Department of Education as a funding agency.
In this session, Julie Swaringim-Griffin and Jennifer Bowman will guide us through the Department of Education's funding priorities, solicitation types and proposal resources. We will also hear from a panel of on-campus Department of Education awardees. These panelists will offer guidance on how to find funding opportunities that are right for you, tips for developing successful proposals and advice for the administrative side of the proposal process.
Please note that while this session will be focused on the basics of Department of Education funding and is designed for investigators relatively new to Department of Education proposals, more experienced investigators may find the information useful, and all are welcome to attend.
