D.C. Days 2018 RFP

The CFAES  Office of  Research and Graduate Education and the Grant Development Support Unit (GDSU) are once again offering CFAES faculty the opportunity to travel to Washington, DC. The Grant Development Support Unit will arrange a group visit (2 to 3 days) in May 2018.

This trip allows researchers to become more competitive by providing an opportunity to visit with federal program officers. This enables researchers to determine whether their basic concept is a good fit with the sponsor’s mission, to seek advice concerning project design and appropriate funding track, and to better understand the peer review process. Meetings with program officers will take place at federal agency offices in Washington, D.C.

Faculty from the College of Education and Human Ecology will also accompany the CFAES group, through the EHE program, to encourage collaborative grant seeking. We hope to provide this experience to six to eight CFAES faculty this year, determined through the competitive application process.  Applications will be accepted from any interested faculty member; however, priority will be given to those with the rank of Assistant Professor, especially those who have grant writing experience. Please contact Pam Schlegel or Lori Kaser with questions.
