Pointers for writing better grant, fellowship, studentship applications
Within this section are tips assembled from various people who have served on grant or fellowship committees and who have noticed what does/does not get funded.
They are not all-embracing, and any further comments and suggestions would be gratefully received. Whilst much of this information might seem obvious, we hope that some of it may provide formative guidance in your applications.
Furthermore, many members of MVLS have served on grant committees and would be happy to provide advice - please see this comprehensive list for information - Grant and Abstract Committees_060923.
