Write Winning Revisions

Relatively few research funding proposals (at least these days) succeed with their first submission, which means that most grant applicants must revise and resubmit their grant applications. Many are unsuccessful again because they lack full understanding of how revisions must be prepared to be successful. This half-day seminar program provides tips and strategies for resubmitting a proposal that can often make the difference between success and failure. The program will include discussion of the critiques of applications that have previously been submitted by members of the audience.

• must have attended Write Winning Grants in a previous year, or be planning to attend in 2010 (If you have not attended in a previous year, please register for Write Winning Grants at http://www.maes.msu.edu/news/2010regform.pdf; the cost is $90.00.);
• may provide an unfunded proposal and funder critique, to use as discussion points and workshop materials;
• must agree to treat all workshop materials as confidential, because colleagues will be contributing their declined proposals and referee comments, workshop participants.
