If you want to continue in science after your PhD, sooner or later you will likely have to compete in calls for personal or program grants. First-stage personal grants provide you with an opportunity to do research in another country and another research team. To be truly competitive in these calls, you should have a strong CV, a solid plan, and have initiated contacts with the professor you would like to work with.

The interactive lecture “Beginner’s Guide to Grant Proposal Writing” will deal with the career ladder in academia, what grants are about, what grant agencies are and what they want, what a strong CV for your personal grant entails, and when to start with what. There will be plenty of time for you to ask those questions you always wanted to ask but just didn’t get to until now. This workshop will be led by prof. Dr. Ingrid Molema, who has ample experience both applying for as well as awarding grants.

This event is going to be held online and is free of charge.
