Over the past few years, Washington and Lee has hosted Faculty Grant Workshops for colleagues in liberal arts colleges and universities in Virginia.
All faculty are welcome from the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences.
Experienced administrators of faculty grant programs will discuss opportunities for both research funding and program grants. There will be five agencies present. The workshop will provide an update on funding available from government and private sources as well as strategies for writing persuasive proposals. Each presentation will provide an overview of agency programs and will emphasize the process of grant and proposal preparation. There will be three presentations in the morning, roundtable discussions over lunch, two afternoon presentations, followed by a time for a presenters dialogue and individual appointments with the presenters at the end of the day.
