How to Get Funded Without Really Trying is a one-stop-shop for information on all things research administration and research development for students, faculty, and staff. Created by students for everyone, How to Get Funded Without Really Trying is a rich resource for those who have been in the field for years and for those who have never even heard of it. The goal of the UC Impact Accelerator is to limit barriers to entry within the field and we hope that this podcast does just that!
GRANTED: Increasing Capacity in the Social Science Research Enterprise

In this episode, we’ll discuss our NSF GRANTED research project focused on identifying barriers and solutions to entering the research enterprise.

Handling Rejection
You’ve done the work. You’ve spent weeks and months searching for the perfect funding opportunity and developing the proposal. You’ve waited (probably months) to hear the outcome...only to receive a rejection. Let’s face it, no one likes to feel rejected. Especially when you’ve poured time and endless resources into developing a project. In this episode, we’ll be discussing how to handle rejection. We’ll discuss ways to address those feelings and plan your next steps.

Leading Without a Title
Graduate students are an often-untapped resource for the success and growth of an organization, while also holding positions of critical importance. This is a first-hand account of how a successful program that relies upon and effectively utilizes graduate student experience can not only be effective but can be a model and a leader for others. Graduate students are future leaders in their fields; if we can tap into that expertise early and cultivate their learning, the mutual growth that can take place is immeasurable and vital in our ever-changing world.
