“This is a project oriented course. The best way to learn about "Grant Writin" rel="nofollow">ing and Admin" rel="nofollow">inistration" is to do it! So, it is important to start at the very begin" rel="nofollow">innin" rel="nofollow">ing of the term thin" rel="nofollow">inkin" rel="nofollow">ing about what type of project you might do. Some students already work for an organization that might have some need for a grant (fundin" rel="nofollow">ing proposal) and perhaps even know of fundin" rel="nofollow">ing sources. Others will have to identify an organization, ask the leadership of the organization if the student might be able to help them with a grant project, and then get in" rel="nofollow">information from the organization to do the project. There is generally a lot of networkin" rel="nofollow">ing in" rel="nofollow">in doin" rel="nofollow">ing this type of project (and a short time to get it completed). Therefore, while we will not all have an immediate idea about the project, we can work to quickly fin" rel="nofollow">ind some possible projects and choose one. Whichever way you do it (in" rel="nofollow">in other words, you already have a project in" rel="nofollow">in min" rel="nofollow">ind, vs. you haven't the fain" rel="nofollow">intest idea), remember that the project should generally be designed to meet some needs of the organization or the needs of some client or constituent population served by the organization. So, you will need to learn enough about the organization to either determin" rel="nofollow">ine their needs early through in" rel="nofollow">interviews or work with the organization members to identify some needs that can be met with fundin" rel="nofollow">ing from an outside source.”
