In this applied learning course, students will progress through the steps of preparing a research grant application in the health and behavioral sciences. Target sponsors include, but are not limited to, federal funding agencies (e.g., National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control) and research foundations (e.g., Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Gates Foundation). Through the course sequence, the grant writing process and the sections of a research grant application will be reviewed. Rigorous research methods, innovative science, and compelling communication strategies will be emphasized throughout. All course assignments will focus on elements of the final deliverable, which is a 6-10 page grant application for a designated sponsor. Students are strongly encouraged to submit their application by the end of the semester or the following summer. In many instances, the resulting deliverable could also form the basis of a dissertation proposal. The course is co-taught by faculty in the School of Social Work and the Connell School of Nursing to foster a strong interdisciplinary perspective in research and grant writing.
