About the Grant Skills Boot Camp

The Grant Skills Boot Camp takes places over one full day. The purpose of this boot camp is to teach graduate students how to find grant opportunities and how to write grant applications. We hope attendees will apply successfully for a grant while in graduate school or shortly thereafter.

Below are the dates, times, and locations for the Grant Skills Boot Camps, along with links to the Registration Form (which includes a Pre-Boot Camp assessment component that will help us better serve the needs of attendees). Seating is limited to the first 30 graduate students who register.  If it turns out you are unable to attend, please let us know one week in advance so that your seat can be given to someone on the waiting list. 

* Please note that this Boot Camp will be recorded and the recording made available online to anyone unable to attend in person. By registering for this Boot Camp, you are agreeing to the possibility of being part of this recording.

If you have any questions about the Grant Skills Boot Camp, please contact Bonnie Fong (bonnie.fong@rutgers.edu) or Kinna Perry (kinnap@andromeda.rutgers.edu).
