“What a $500,000 grant proposal looks like” by Austin Z. Henley

I believe that this generous share will help me a lot in the future when I am going to write down my first proposal. I hope that it won’t take me too long to reach that moment.

A large part of being a professor at a research university is writing grant proposals.

But it is hard to learn how to write proposals. Very few proposal documents are ever shared publicly. You basically have to ask colleagues to share theirs or give feedback on your drafts. You might get the chance to review proposals for a funding agency, which lets you see part of how the decisions are made. You do get feedback after submitting a proposal, though it comes many months later and can be hard to decipher.
