📜 Course Description

This is a fellowship writing workshop conducted remotely during Summer. This is aimed at PhD students in the first 1-3 years of their tenure. The objective is to apply for eligible fellowships after the workshop is complete. A list of fellowships that I have been compiling over some time is available if you scroll down.

Hi all, we will start our fellowship writing workshop on Wednesday May 14, 2025. The objective of this workshop is to help each of you prepare a very successful application to each fellowship that you are eligible for. You are expected to apply to all of them that you are eligible for. Please take a look at the plan below carefully and let me know if you are unable to make any of this. All meetings will take place via zoom at 11am-12pm MT. Email/msg me to obtain the zoom link.

Resources from the University of Utah related to the NSF GRFP are here. Previous successful NSF GRFP proposals can be found here.
