CGS-D Proposal: Crafting a Compelling Research Story
September 4 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
This in-person workshop is designed for graduate students applying for the Canada Graduate Scholarship – Doctoral (CGS-D) from the national funding agencies: CIHR, NSERC, and SSHRC.

The workshop includes examples of successful UBC CGS-D research proposals.
Highlights of this in-person event include dedicated time to write in community, light refreshments (coffee, tea, snacks), and 30-minute writing consultations with a doctoral peer from the Centre for Writing and Scholarly Communication.

Bookings will be on a first come, first served basis.
