There will be a workshop during lunchtime on Saturday September 17th, led by Alan Greenleaf, about the dos and don'ts of grant preparation. Pizza will be served.
Abstract: External research funding allows mathematicians to travel to conferences to learn about the latest results, meet others in their fields and find potential collaborators. Grant travel funds can enable existing collaborations with researchers at other institutions, and stipends can give graduate students time off from teaching duties. I will discuss different types of grants and suggest some do’s and don’ts of proposal writing.
The Lecture Center is down on a lower level, by the clock tower and the main artesian fountain.
