Workshops,
Sponsor Visits, and Events
Bringing
the right people and resources
to you . . .
We offer workshops and classes
on proposal development, how to
search for grants, current funding
initiatives, and other topics relevant
to successfully competing for grants.
Through meetings with new chairs,
directors, faculty, and liaisons,
we gain a better understanding
of research on campus and are able
to identify opportunities and potential
partnerships, and facilitate campus
visits with appropriate extramural
sponsors.
Contact Whitney Winn, at funding@research.ucsb.edu or x8891, to set up an appointment
or
to discuss
your ideas for a Research
Development class, symposium, workshop,
or sponsor visit. We can help you
identify the right people and resources
for your research or event.
