Question
The call
We would like to invite interested researchers and stakeholders to share their grant proposals of any area of knowledge written in English and/or in Portuguese.
This project is part of PhD study in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) at University of São Paulo – one of the world’s top 100 universities, Brazil.
Aim
The purpose is to investigate the writing of grant proposals across disciplines as an attempt to understand the linguistic and rhetorical features of proposals written in both English and Portuguese. Ultimately, the study’s goal is to determine/comprehend what factors may impact the success or failure in obtaining research funding.
Considering that grant proposals are not publicly available, they represent a type of text that is not well-known and requires scientific investigation. This study may benefit the new generation of researchers from various fields, particularly, those in low-income or middle-income countries (LMICs).
Incentive
Those contributing with the research will be invited for a hybrid course on Grant Proposals Writing in English and Portuguese promoted by PhD student responsible for the research.
A certificate will be issued by the Laboratory of Academic Literacy of the Department of Modern Languages of Faculty of Philosophy, Languages and Literature, and Human Sciences of the University of São Paulo – USP.
