Illinois Events

During this workshop, we will discuss the fundamentals of proposal writing, guiding undergraduate students to formulate successful research projects and explain their research in a concise and compelling manner that is understandable to a general audience. Students will leave the workshop with (1) basic knowledge about research proposals and their structure, (2) tactics and tools to write successful research statements, and (3) a list of resources for assistance in the writing process. This workshop is a collaboration between the Office of Undergraduate Research and the Writers Workshop and will be most well-suited for undergraduates who are drafting proposals for the first time, hoping to improve their proposal writing skills, and/or applying for an OUR Research Support Grant.

This event will be held in the Illini Union Bookstore, room 514. It is open to current University of Illinois affiliates (students, faculty, and staff). Please register using your Illinois email address by March 4, and Writers Workshop will send a reminder on the morning of the event. This event will also be held on March 9.

All registrants will receive presentation materials the following day. This will not include a recording.
