Workshops
and plenary sessions will:
-
tell
participants about grant opportunities in research and education, both new
and ongoing;
-
help
faculty learn how to find new funding opportunities;
-
help
faculty develop grant proposal writing skills.
Participants
will:
-
meet
in small groups and talk with program officers and grants
management officers -- NSF, NIH, NEH, DOE, NASA, USDA, and more;
-
take
the opportunity to communicate directly with program officers and grants
administrators concerning grant requirements and funders’ priorities;
-
share
ideas with colleagues.
In
addition, CUR Dialogues provides a setting for funders to learn of the interests,
needs, and concerns of researchers and educators relative to funding
opportunities.
CUR Dialogues have spawned many ideas for grant programs, and have helped
agencies to refine their program guidelines.
Who should attend:
Faculty at all career stages; undergraduate
research directors; grants administrators; development officers.
