Join AAPG SDEC and OSU College of Arts and Sciences research experts for a free webinar to introduce STEM students and emerging professionals to the knowledge and skills required to craft compelling and competitive scientific funding proposals. Facilitators will share content and tips organized around three key themes: understanding scientific funding proposals, effective communication and persuasion, and key elements of a successful proposal.

Before diving into the Proposal Writing Workshop, the webinar will include a brief overview of the Sustainable Development in Energy Competition, messages from sponsoring companies and a few past competition winners, and a Q&A session. The entire webinar is expected to last approximately 90 minutes.
