A guided approach to research grant proposal writing

Description

Why the course?

There is an assumption that researchers or lecturers by the nature of their work can write persuasive research grant proposals to support research and also bring in the much needed research funds to the institution. While this may be the expectation, many times researchers or lecturers do not have the know-how of research grant proposal writing.

This course is therefore designed to provide upcoming researchers or lecturers a guided approach to research grant proposal writing by:

• ensuring best fundable ideas are fronted;

• appropriate funding opportunities are sought;

• all components of a research grant application are submitted;

• an appropriate budget is presented and

• the organisation is presented in the best possible light.

The research grant writing course can also support a research administrator tasked with the responsibility of compiling and submitting a full set of research grant applications with all required attachments. The course can also benefit a student keen in pursuing a career in research grant proposal writing to join research teams and contribute to research grant proposal writing activities.
