Grant Proposal Development. How to Design and Communicate your Research Project Convincingly for Funding Bodies (four-day) [ONLINE WORKSHOP]
Online Seminar
Online
Dr. Sabine Preusse, RaumZeit e.K. Coaching Beratung Training
The event will be held in English and run for four days, on June 26 & 27 and on July 3 & 4, 2025
Developing successful grant applications is an essential skill for a career in research. In this workshop you will learn tools and background information that, on the one hand, will help you to efficiently develop your research idea into a research project which matches your target funding program and, on the other hand, to write it up in a grant proposal of high quality.
Objectives:
Get an overview on funding program and how you can use them for driving your career as a researcher Develop your own idea for a research project proposal into a first work-plan Understand how to match your research project to the funding program in order to increase the potential to be funded Understand the basics of budget planning Acquire basic skills for formulating objectives, progress beyond the state of the art and impact Try out a set of tools to efficiently develop a research proposal.
Methods:
Presentation of background information Applying the RaumZeit toolkit to your own idea for a research project Group work Feedback from trainer and peers
Please note: Participants who enter the workshop with an idea for a research project will benefit the most from its program. The idea may be newly developed, or you have been thinking about it for quite some time. The workshop envisages that you will ideally continue to work on your proposal between the workshop sessions. Please plan time for this accordingly. However, a prior project idea is not a pre-requisite for successfully participating.
We will have optional homework, so please plan additional time between the sessions for further developing your building blocks for a grant proposal.
Eligibility: This event is mainly aimed at postdocs, however, it is also open to interested doctoral researchers at KIT. Both have to be members of KHYS. If you are currently not yet a member of KHYS, you can register here.
The event will be held in English and run for four days, on June 26 & 27 and on July 3 & 4, 2025
Technical requirements: To participate in this event, you need a stable internet connection, a webcam and a microphone. Participants will receive further detailed information regarding the online-platform prior to the event.
If you are unable to attend an event, please inform us promptly via e-mail. This way you are allowing your colleagues the opportunity to participate and you help us to maintain the quality of our Further Education Program. Thank you!

Dr. Lukas Heierle, Lukas Bischof Hochschulberatung
Die Veranstaltung findet auf Deutsch und an zwei Tagen statt, am 14. und 15. Juli 2025.
Projektmanagement ist eine Schlüsselkompetenz – sowohl für zukünftige Aufgaben außerhalb der Wissenschaft, als auch für den Arbeitsalltag von Forschenden. Projekte gelingen, wenn fachliches Können mit soliden Management- und Selbstführungskompetenzen kombiniert wird.
Dieser Workshop führt in die Grundlagen des Projektmanagements ein und richtet sich an Promovierende und Postdocs ohne Vorkenntnisse. Sie lernen, Projekte systematisch zu planen und durchzuführen – von SMART-Zielen über Ressourcen- und Risikoanalysen bis hin zu agilen und klassischen Ansätzen. Praxisbeispiele, Erfahrungsaustausch und Einblicke in Online-Tools runden den Workshop ab.
Nach dem Workshop können Sie:
Projekte effizient planen und steuern: den Projektlebenszyklus verstehen und umsetzen: Rollen, Aktivitäten, Meilensteine, Kommunikation im Projekt, Risikomanagement, Projektstrukturplan, Projektsteuerung klassisches, agiles und hybrides Projektmanagement unterscheiden typische Fallstricke vermeiden und neue Lösungsansätze nutzen ausgewählte Online-Tools für das Projektmanagement nutzen
Der Workshop ist praxisorientiert, erfahrungsbasiert und interaktiv. Wir erarbeiten alle Phasen des Projektmanagements anhand von Beispielen und bieten Raum für individuellen Erfahrungsaustausch.
Erhalten Sie das Rüstzeug für professionelles Projektmanagement – in der Wissenschaft und darüber hinaus.
Bitte beachten Sie: Neben diesem Workshop bietet das KHYS weitere Projektmanagementkurse mit unterschiedlichen Schwerpunkten an, dabei kann es zu inhaltlichen Überschneidungen kommen:
Getting Started. Die Promotion als Projekt (D & EN) Project Management for Research Projects Projektmanagement in der Industrie Agile Project Management (für Fortgeschrittene mit Vorwissen)
Die Veranstaltung richtet sich an Promovierende und Postdocs am KIT (Mitglieder des KHYS).
Die Veranstaltung findet auf Deutsch und an zwei Tagen statt, am 14. und 15. Juli 2025.
