Winning and managing grants and consultancies

Seminar (1 of 4) about research mentoring presented by CoInEd Research Network

During the past 20 years, the expectation for researchers and academics to win grants and complete consultancies has increased exponentially. While these research activities can significantly advance one’s career and also serve as a means to disseminate research and practice more broadly, they can also be challenging to win, difficult to navigate, and time-consuming to complete. How does one start consulting? What strategies help win grants? What pitfalls should be avoided? This event aims to address these and related questions. The event will maintain a particular focus on grants and consultancies relevant to researchers whose work is situated in Comparative and International Education, but the scope of advice and expertise likely extends to other related fields as well.

Professor Anthony Welch has extensive experience working with organisations such as the OECD, UNDP, UNESCO, World Bank, ADB, CEDEFOP (Europe), BIBB (Germany), IREDU (France), the Fulbright Commission, and the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching (CFAT). He has contributed to major projects and reforms in various parts of the world and consulted to governments in Australia, Japan, Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan and Europe, to foundations in the US, and to international agencies, principally in the area of higher education reform. Professor Welch also serves on the editorial board of 10 international journals and he has published widey on cross-cultural interactions, rural education; comparative research methods in education; and practical reforms affecting multiculturalism, indigenous minorities, international students, higher education, internationalisation in the Asia Pacific, and changes to the academic profession. Professor Welch is also an active member of CoInEd.
