Graduate Research Fellowship Program Workshop Series

  • 2026 GRFP Grant Writing Workshop Flyer
  • MSU GRFP D2L course
  • GRFP homepage

The MSU Office of Research Engagement and Scholar Development (ORESD) conducts a workshop series that will present NSF GRFP program information and provide structured practice to create competitive GRFP application.

STEM undergraduate and graduate students will participate in a 5-part series that will include:

  • an overview of the GRFP and application process
  • first-hand advice from GRFP reviewers and recent awardees
  • two interactive sessions to review and revise their application documents.

The workshop will also provide a timeline and guidance for requesting recommendation letters. 

In addition to preparing a more competitive GRFP application, workshop participants will gain experience drafting a research outline and conveying their research to broad audiences.

To RSVP by Sep 12, 2026 visit: https://bit.ly/MSUGRFPreg

Applying to the GRFP Fellowship

After the two peer-review sessions, workshop participants will have the opportunity to submit their application online for current GRFP Fellows at MSU to review. 

Submission details and review timeline will be provided in the workshops. This program is open to all.
