This course gives students an introduction to grants and proposals from a rhetorical perspective. Non-profit, corporate, and government organizations offer many opportunities to fund projects; and clear, persuasive writing is a key part of securing this funding. Students will learn about the grant application process-from researching opportunities to submitting final drafts-and the basics of writing strong proposals. Throughout the course, students will study genre conventions such as the letter of transmittal, abstract, problem statement, timeline, and budget. Ultimately, the course aims to help students understand how to make thoughtful rhetorical decisions in order to produce effective, persuasive arguments about their projects and research plans.
