Workshops, Training, and Events

Campus-wide workshops increase success in securing extramural funding from a variety of sources and help researchers comply with evolving regulations. Workshops cover a variety of topics such as trends in federal funding, navigating specific agencies, the basics of submitting a grant proposal, and many other topics. In addition, we host events on campus, such as visits from federal agency program officers and potential research collaborators, and training seminars/webinars that provide a comprehensive look at the products and services offered by our office. See below for upcoming events and materials from prior workshops and visits.
