Scholarship Consultations

Interested in making progress on a writing project? Looking for feedback on a manuscript, grant proposal, or publication strategy?

A Scholarship Consultation is a focused session, or series of sessions, between a faculty member and the Director of Research and Scholarly Writing. A consultation may involve a single meeting to address a specific challenge or series of meetings over the course of a semester or academic year. The goal is to support faculty at any stage of the scholarly process, from generating ideas and planning projects to publishing and sustaining a productive writing practice.

The consultation helps faculty members advance their scholarly work, overcome obstacles, develop sustainable practices, and make strategic decisions about research, writing, publication, and funding. We are committed to a flexible but structured consultation model. Thus, we focus on what each individual faculty member wants to work on.

Participation in this program is entirely voluntary and confidential. We offer many different options and tailor our consultations to best serve your goals and concerns.
