For a successful application for a doctoral scholarship, e.g. from the German "Begabtenförderungswerke", you need a convincing and well-founded research proposal. In this workshop, you will use practical writing methods and friendly feedback to develop the core of your research project and start writing your research outline.

You will also receive information on the central components, structure options and objectives of the research proposal as well as on a strong language that convinces research funders.

This event will be held in German.

Lecturer: Dr. Eva-Maria Lerche, writing teacher and systemic writing coach, introductory impulse: Linda Dieks, SAFIR research funding support
