Conducting innovative research increasingly requires resources that exceed those readily on-hand to the individual scholar. Research funding can be used to access a wider set of research methods, to accelerate your research project, expand its scope and depth, and increase its impact. This short course provides an overview of the types and sources of funding available for research support, and introduces the fundamental elements of planning, proposal writing, and management for sponsored projects. The course is geared toward junior faculty, postdocs, and graduate students (in late stages or on the job market), who are new to the funding process, are considering whether to seek funding from new sources, or would like a systematic review of the grant writing and review process.
