SUMMARY:Demystifying Private Funding Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:While often solicited through very brief notices for concise proposals\, pursuing corporate and\nfoundation grant opportunities can be a mystery. Private funding opportunities differ in significant\nways from those offered through traditional public agencies. This session will provide guidance on\nwho to work with when pursuing private funding at UTSA as well as some key insights into strategic\nplanning and positioning to improve your competitiveness. \nView the Event FlyerRegister for this eventPresented By: Shawn Farrell\nUTSA Assistant Vice President for Corporate & Foundation Engagement \n

SUMMARY:Live Webinar - NCURA Growing a Grant Seeking Culture in the Arts and Humanities
DESCRIPTION:Many faculty members within the arts and humanities are not aware of the sponsored funding opportunities available\, and therefore do not pursue external resources. Other faculty members may be aware of grants and fellowships\, but reluctant to put time and energy toward proposal writing in light of their many other academic commitments or preconceived notions of what a grant can fund. How can we support researchers and artists who may be completely new to pursuing funding opportunities? In the same vein\, how can we persuade hesitant faculty of the benefits of submitting proposals? This webinar will offer concrete examples of best practices to promote\, support\, and sustain a grant-seeking culture in the arts and humanities. We will discuss: \n\nOutreach to and strategic programming for arts and humanities faculty who are new to\, or hesitant about pursuing sponsored funding for their research activities and creative work;\nBest practices for disseminating funding opportunity announcements and newsletters to this broad\, often multidisciplinary\, audience;\nExamples of proposal development tools for arts and humanities faculty; and\nProviding support throughout the grant lifecycle for faculty and staff in these departments.\n\nWe will draw from the perspectives of an R1 institution and a PUI to offer concrete and adaptable practices for growing a grant seeking culture in the arts and humanities. \nRegister for this eventPresented By: National Council of University Research Administrators\n
