Faculty Development offers two workshops

Faculty Development announces two workshops: an "Internal Grants Question-and-Answer Session" and a workshop on "Forming a Writing Group."

"Internal Grants Question-and-Answer Workshop"

This workshop will be held:

  • 3:30-4:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 17, in Room 155, Murray-Herrick Campus Center, St. Paul campus
  • 2:30-3:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 18, in Room 417, Opus Hall, Minneapolis campus

Pre-registration is not required.

Faculty Development director, Sue Chaplin, and some members of the FD Committee will answer your questions about FD internal grant and sabbatical applications. They specifically will address the new guidelines for Research Grants, which will replace the Research Assistance and Maxi Grants.

Faculty are asked to view application guidelines and forms before the session, so the workshop time may be spent more productively. These documents may be viewed on the FD Web site.

The sabbatical deadline is Oct. 1, and the Research Grant deadline this year is Nov. 3. The Teaching Enhancement Grant deadline has been moved to March 1, 2009.

"Forming a Writing Group"

This workshop will be held:

  • 4:30 p.m.-5 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 17, in Room 155, Murray-Herrick Campus Center, St. Paul campus
  • 3:30-4 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 18, in Room 417, Opus Hall, Minneapolis campus

Pre-registration is not required.

Hear how to get your scholarly writing back into your daily schedule and then keep it going by joining a writing group of peers. This workshop will be led by Faculty Development staff.
