The College of Graduate Studies and Research, Office of University Research Services is pleased to host a workshop on January 15, 2009 focusing on finding and applying for external funding for scholarly projects, covering grantsmanship skills and specific programs. We especially encourage junior faculty members, those faculty members who have had little or no grants experience, and those who are planning to apply for external funding in the near future to attend.
Our workshop will include sessions on grant programs of the Maryland Higher Education Commission, programs of the National Endowment for the Arts, Maryland Industrial Partnership (MIPS) grants, and on preparing competitive National Science Foundation proposals. A continental breakfast will be available from 8:30 with sessions beginning at 9:00. Lunch will also be provided. To reserve a place, register by Monday by calling 4-2236, or by sending an email message including your telephone number to {ours@towson.edu}. The workshop will be held at 7800 York Road, Room 218A.
