== Course Overview == === General description of series === COM 594 is a series of five professional seminars designed to help students develop a range of professional competencies. Communication Ph.D. students are required to take three of these courses as part of their programs of study, and M.A. students are welcome to enroll. In these proseminars, faculty and other guests share their experiences as teachers, researchers, and public intellectuals. As a faculty, we view this series as an important, thought-provoking, and fun part of your graduate education, and we are excited to incorporate these seminars into our program. === Specific course description === This proseminar on research funding introduces students to the resources available to help scholars fund their research, both at the graduate level and beyond. Specifically, the course is designed to orient you to the identification of funding sources, introduce you to the grant-writing process, and provide you with an opportunity to begin obtaining funding for your own work. Because participants in this course are at various stages in their academic career and have a wide range of research interests, it is virtually impossible to speak to specific funding sources or requirements. Rather, we will discuss commonalities that transcend research interests. Also given the lack of common research-based focuses, your work for this class will be geared toward individualized course goals that you will negotiate with the instructor over the first week or so of the quarter. === Learning goals === I will consider this course a complete success if, at the end of the course, all students in the course: * Feel comfortable looking for funding, evaluating whether a particular funding opportunity is a good match for their own research, and can point to several concrete potential sources of funding for their work, both at UW and from outside. * Can effectively argue the case for funding for their research, both verbally and in writing, in ways that are effectively tailored to the potential funder, call, or source.
