Phew, we made it! This is the sixth and final blog post in the #CoastalResearchGrants series, in which we’re walking through the steps of preparing a proposal for a coastal research grant using the North Carolina Coastal Research Fellowship application as a specific case study.
Greetings, y’all- this is the fifth blog in the six-post #CoastalResearchGrants series, in which we’re walking through the steps of preparing a proposal for a coastal research grant using the North Carolina Coastal Research Fellowship application as a specific case study. If you’re following along chronologically, you will have a version of your research statement articulated on paper, which we discussed drafting last week.
We’re officially over halfway through our #CoastalResearchGrants series. In this series, we’re walking through the steps of preparing a proposal for a coastal research grant using the North Carolina Coastal Research Fellowship application as a specific case study. Thus far, we’ve primarily focused on what you can do to prepare before you start writing. Last week, we discussed the importance of outlining your ideas.
We’ve made it to the third of six posts in the #CoastalResearchGrants blog series.
