Grant Workshops for Faculty & Administrators
  • Do you have an interest in seeking external funding to support your research or teaching? 
  • Are you interested in learning more about the proposal development process? 

If so, please attend a Grants Development and Research Lunch and Learn Workshop hosted by the Rider University Teaching and Learning Center.  The workshop will introduce the new grant-support services available to faculty through the TLC as well as provide a presentation on “first steps” in searching for a funding source and writing a proposal.  Faculty members from all disciplines are encouraged to attend.

Thursday, January 17, Noon - 1:30 p.m.

Registration and Location information is forthcoming.

Questions may be directed to dpinney@rider.edu or 609-896-5019.

In addition to the introductory workshop listed above, Grants & Research at Rider University is delighted to provide an opportunity for members of the Rider Community to learn about the grant-seeking process from some of their academic peers and leaders. Please join us for an interactive, multidisciplinary, Lunch and Learn: Panel of Rider's Successful Grant Writers on Thursday, November 14, 2013, 12 noon to 1:30 p.m.  Panelists will include Hope Corman, Professor, Finance & Economics; Brea Heidelberg, Assistant Professor, Fine Arts; Laura Hyatt, Associate Dean for Sciences, CLAES; Kelly Noonan, Professor, Finance & Economics; and Sharon Sherman, Dean, School of Education.  These faculty members and administrators will discuss a host of topics, from how they got started writing grant proposals to the lessons they've learned in the process, challenges they faced, and things they wished they knew from the beginning.  Questions will be welcome and lunch will be served.

Rider’s Grants Development “Boot camp” is a full-day (six hour), intensive workshop that will provide an overview of the grant writing process.  Workshop content will include a tutorial on searching for private and federal grant opportunities; a detailed overview of the major sections of a grant proposal; and  analysis of a Request for Proposals (RFP) in conjunction with a corresponding, funded application to demonstrate the principles of effective grant writing.  This workshop is designed for those faculty members with limited experience with grants. We encourage faculty members from all disciplines to participate.
