- Class Description:
- The goal of this seminar, which is geared towards M.A. and Ph.D. students, is to help students learn how to design and write excellent, fundable research proposals in anthropology. Students will accomplish this by writing a proposal to carry out their dissertation research using NSF's dissertation improvement grants as a template. The seminar will facilitate this process by providing 1) information, readings and discussion on how to design research projects; 2) a structure for writing the proposal, which will conform to current grant criteria; 3) a timeline for writing each element of the proposal, which will reflect the timeline of the semester; and 4) regular feedback from peers and the instructor, designed to improve the proposal at all stages. By the end of the semester, students will have completed a clearly written, polished dissertation proposal which can be submitted to granting agencies, and/or which will serve as the template for carrying out that research.
