Webinar: Exploring Grant Panel Review Service

Wednesday, March 19, noon-1 pm

Via Zoom (link provided after registration)

Co-presented by the Center for Faculty Development and Excellence and the Oxford RAS, Oxford College

Serving on funding review panels is a powerful way for scholars to gain first-hand knowledge of the peer review process, learn about common problems with proposals, discern strategies for writing strong proposals, and connect with colleagues and funding agency program officers. Whether you work in the humanities, the arts, the natural sciences, or the social sciences, review panelists directly contribute to the decision-making process of allocating funds to significant projects within your area of interest. 

In this webinar, three seasoned review panelists will talk about how they became involved in this work, the nature and requirements of grant review panel service, and the benefits. Submit your questions on the registration form or bring them to the session.
