Writing a Research Article: Applying for a Funding Project

In this practical workshop, you will study the elements and language choices in sample grant application letters. While requirements vary depending on the specific grant being applied for, certain characteristics of a successful application may be identified. You will learn how to make your project stand out, how to highlight its uniqueness and how to convince a review committee that you are qualified to execute the project.

Eleanor proofreads and edits academic texts such as research articles, PhD dissertations, conference papers, motivation letters, and grant applications.
