Funding Application Resources

Graduate students seeking external grants and fellowships are encouraged to work with their Director of Graduate Studies and/or advisor to develop effective application materials. Agencies want the best possible proposals, so you are encouraged to contact a funding agency to ask appropriate, substantive questions during the application process. Speaking with the funding agency and faculty who have interacted with the funding agency will give you special insights. Additionally, explore the resources offered on campus below.

The Graduate School Center for Writing and Oral Communication

The Graduate School Center for Writing and Oral Communication provides support for writing and oral presentations by offering one-on-one consultation sessions, walk-in hours, and workshops. Use their expertise and guidance in writing articles, fellowship applications, oral presentations, or even a brainstorming session to assist you with communicating your research. 

The Graduate School Funding Workshops

These workshops provide students with information about how to apply for the Graduate School Fellowships and Awards. The Ann G. Wylie Dissertation Fellowship and the Summer Research Fellowships will be reviewed in detail, and guidance on how to write an effective project summary will be presented.
