Cíle předmětu
The purpose of this workshop is to share practical knowledge and experience from applying for and implementing academic grants. The presenter will draw on her knowledge as an applicant and principal investigator of projects and years of experience as a reviewer and evaluator of grant applications, as well as scholarships, awards and other competitions and programs. The work will also be based on the exchange of experiences, concerns and plans of the workshop participants, and above all on individual and/or team work on a specific idea, so it is advisable to come to the workshop with an idea for the grant proposal, so that the time spent at the meeting will be as effective and profiled as possible. The essence of the meeting will be practical work and discussion, interspersed with explanations of basic issues and sharing good practices. The last part of the workshop will be devoted to individual consultations.

Students are expected to actively participate in the workshop on September 30, 2024, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, which includes three breaks of 20, 30, and 15 minutes.
Výstupy z učení
During the course, students will be developing the skills necessary to create a comprehensive grant proposal, including clearly defined research problems, objectives, and methodologies. They will be able to identify key research gaps in the existing literature and articulate how their research addresses these gaps. Additionally, students will be more proficient in designing a detailed research plan, including task assignments, timelines, and risk analysis, ensuring that their projects are feasible and aligned with grant requirements. They will also learn how to create accurate and justified project budgets and understand cost categories and resource allocation. Beyond writing the proposal, students will be prepared to manage the challenges of grant implementation, such as team building, administrative coordination, and ethical and legal considerations, and they will be equipped to disseminate and promote project results effectively. Finally, through individual consultations and peer discussions, students can refine their proposals based on peer and expert feedback, ensuring that their work is as competitive as possible.
