CLAS NEW FACULTY ORIENTATION 20 AUG 2014 A: POINT OF DEPARTURE: You are brilliant and you have a great idea. B: OBJECTIVE: Obtain funding to pursue your great idea as a research project. C: STRATEGY: Move successfully from A to B.

ATTITUDE & MIND SET BASIC POINTS TO KEEP IN MIND: Foundation X has funding to support research projects such as yours. They want to support your research project. They want to give you their money. PRACTICAL QUESTION: What can you do to increase the likelihood of receiving support?

REALITY CHECK WHAT YOU CANNOT DO: You cannot foresee the pool of proposals within which your proposal will be competing. You cannot know who will be reading your proposal. WHAT YOU CAN DO, FOR A START: Eliminate anything that might decrease your chances of writing a competitive proposal.

PRACTICAL TIPS Follow instructions. Organize your proposal according to the headings (topics, questions) provided. Make it easy your reader to identify your thesis, approach, goals, work schedule, and projected outcomes. Be clear and concise about the significance and originality of your proposal. State specific ways (training, previous experience, research tools) you are qualified to accomplish what you propose. Simplify your writing. Check & recheck style, grammar, spellng, font style & font size. Neatness counts. Be aware of jargon. Limit your use of terms that a reader outside your field might not easily understand.

RECAP Keep in mind that drafting a successful proposal requires a learning process. You may not receive funding the first or second or even ninth time around. Keep trying. The effort to develop your writing skills in this context will surely be of long-term value. There will be a payoff somewhere down the road. Don’t hesitate to consult with colleagues and friends as well as Division of Sponsored Programs, and Office of VP for Research staff. Attend workshops, etc. Remember that there are people on campus ready to support your efforts to secure research funding. Good luck!
