Illinois Office of
Undergraduate Research

The Office of Undergraduate Research announces its Spring 2018 calendar for the Proposal Writing for Undergraduate Researchers Workshop.

During this workshop, we will discuss the fundamentals of proposal writing, guiding students to formulate successful research projects and explain their research in a concise and compelling manner that is understandable to a general audience. Students will leave the workshop with (1) basic knowledge about research proposals and their structure, (2) tactics and tools to write successful research statements, and (3) a list of resources for assistance in the writing process.

Each workshop is limited to the first 30 applicants. Confirmed participants will be contacted in advance of the workshop. Please note, workshops are limited to 30 students to allow for individualized instruction.

Requirements:

1. Participation is by advanced registration only; see calendar below. Students are encouraged to register as soon as possible, as these workshops fill up very quickly. 
2. Students may register for one workshop ONLY; duplicate registrations across multiple dates will be deleted.
3. Students are encouraged to bring either a laptop computer or tablet device to the workshop.
4. Students are expected to commit to the full time requirements of the workshop; please do not register for these workshops if you plan to leave early or arrive late due to other scheduling conflicts.
