Location
Online on zoom. Writing seminars on-site: Room U1-1120 at NORCE, BCCR (entrance through Jahnebakken 5, to the right after entering)
The Bjerknes Proposal Writing Class (Bjerknes proposal writing training 2) is an offer to scientists at the Bjerknes Centre who plan to submit a project proposal in 2026 and have little or no experience yet in proposal writing. By taking the class, you will consecutively develop your idea into a proposal draft and finally, a complete proposal ready to submit within the deadlines of 2026. This writing class will complement the support you get from your academic supervisor or scientific mentor but cannot replace that kind of support.

Class format and time effort:
Weekly alternating lectures and writing seminars
Lecture-sessions consist of 1 hour lecture + up to 30 minutes question/discussion online: background and guidelines for a specific proposal aspect, instructions for specific remote work on your proposal;
Writing sessions consist of 1 hour writing on-site: perform remote work, present results and get feedback.
Remote work:
1-2 hours/week remote work on your proposal (in addition to writing seminars)
To be performed by the next class
Individual meetings with assigned adviser and/or scientific mentor on demand
You will get individual written feedback on your remote work from your assigned adviser
Imperfect and tentative individual work is better than no remote work!
