The Grant Writing workshop is geared towards PhD-eligible fellowships, so it is not a great fit for master’s students. We don’t currently offer workshops for master’s-eligible awards, but we recommend that you check out the Office of Fellowships and Scholarships for general grant-writing workshops and for support in applying to the National Science Foundation’s Graduate Research Fellowship Program.

These workshops are open to anyone who is entering a scientific research-based graduate program at UB.

The Grant Writing workshops are more intensive, with more writing and outside assignments.
