Supporting Arts and Humanities Projects

The Supporting Arts and Humanities Projects speaker series is aimed at faculty and other researchers in those broad areas of inquiry who want to know how to obtain internal and external funding for their projects but don't know where to start. Featuring experts from outside the university and from 色色啦, the series is for faculty at any level who need inspiration and concrete advice on how to prepare, present, and compete for project grant support. 

Registration is not required, but appreciated.
