Graduate Student Proposal Development Workgroup

Dear Graduate Students,

The EHE Office of Research held our first graduate student proposal development workgroup meeting on February 2nd. We decided that we would meet regularly as a group and review applications for grants/fellowships. We will learn by doing! We sent out a doodle poll with some available dates and times, and thanks to those of you who responded, we have scheduled our next meeting for Monday, February 19th at 10AM. The meeting will take place in PAES Room 143.

Please RSVP – space is limited to 35 students.

I have also attached the document listing some funding options and resources for your research that was sent out with the previous email.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Rebecca Chacko at chacko.9@osu.edu.

Thank you,
Rebecca
