Grantsmanship Events
A series of grantsmanship workshops are hosted throughout the year by the Office of the Executive Vice President for Research and Partnerships. Many of these workshops are particularly useful for new faculty or those new to the research process at Purdue.
We also provide sessions under our Convergence Track. These events provide best practices and networking opportunities as they pertain to funding agencies, national labs, FFRDCs, and other proposal development partners. Convergence Track workshops can be useful for faculty at all stages of their career looking to decode different federal organizations that can be highly valuable in their funding pursuits.
