FY24 Learning Lessons: First-Generation Researchers (PDW #3)
Proposal Development Workshops (PDWs) are 30-minute webinars (followed by 30 minute small group discussions) on key milestones along the funding journey. Presenters provide best practice and ASU-specific insight across all facets of proposal development. Starting with understanding the funding landscape, going through finding a solicitation, developing a proposal, and preparing a budget, each webinar is a quick look at best practice. These webinars are appropriate to all stages of researcher from any discipline for any sponsor. PDW’s are held approximately every other week at 10am AZ through the academic year. Sponsored by KE Research Development.
Learning Lessons: First-Generation Researchers (PDW #3)
New places, mean new rules and expectations. Often there are unspoken rules that seem obvious to most of our colleagues but not to everyone, and this can make some of us feel out of place, isolated and frustrated. In addition to not knowing what the unspoken rules are, paperwork and administration at ASU can be overwhelming. This session is for those who have felt or may feel as described above, or for anyone interested in learning how to better navigate the research environment. We appreciate that sometimes you need to know where to find resources for career development or for learning how to get your first grant, or just to hear from someone who made it in academia. We bring together ASU leaders who are intimately involved in day-to-day faculty support for research-related activities and are research active faculty themselves, to provide tips and tricks (links and recommendations) for navigating the research ecosystem (inclusive of STEM, social sciences, and humanities) for those who are new or novices (at any career level) in the research ecosystem. From securing students and research space to a timeline for tenure, attendees will leave with greater confidence in beginning their journey.
