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 Carla Whitacre, whitacre@research.ucsb.edu, at x3925, 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.
