In this workshop you will acquire the ability to write successful research proposals to pursue an academic career. We will look at the four phases of proposal writing, focusing on content and structure. We will discuss as well as improve examples of texts and look at successful budget and work plans. We will talk about writing strategies, discuss best-practice examples and, above all, work on your own texts. There will be impulses, input and feedback rounds to improve your current texts and develop strategies for your further applications.

- Understand and assess quality criteria of grant proposals from the reviewers' perspective.
