- 02/12/2009: Manuel Trucco - AN INFORMAL WORKSHOP ON PROPOSAL WRITING:
This is an informal, open session meant to share experiences and information on writing good research proposals. The focus is on EPSRC but many aspects discussed will be applicable to most funding applications.
Some things which intend to achieve:
- share good practice from experienced researchers (incl. Prof Anne Anderson, VP and College Head)
- raise awareness of important issues related to EPSRC proposal writing (e.g., new rules and procedures)
- inform those less, or not at all, familiar with EPSRC, and stimulate them to think proposals
- capture useful messages and information in a summary to be made public
- ultimately, improve our success rate with funding bids.
This is not a listen-then-ask-questions seminar, but an open forum.
Bring your experience, your curiosity and your questions (or any proper subset thereof).
