CTRIVE® 3.0 Competence development
This workshop aims to introduce the researcher to some of the generic elements of research proposal evaluation. As far as possible, the session will include input from external experts as well as GIO staff. Evaluations are conducted by human beings, and while excellent research ideas are the key factor in success, there are also a range of techniques and knowledge which can influence the evaluators and support you in developing competitive proposals.
Researchers and doctoral students at Karlstad University can receive support, advice and funding opportunities for the development of innovative ideas. Just Contact The Grants and Innovation Office. There is also a similar support for other employees and students.

- I think International Bussiness is a great alternative. If you are interested in economy and enterprise and want to learn how organizations work International Bussiness is a great choice for you. The education caught my interest when I found out about the variety in courses. For example communication- and ethics courses, were other economy educations rather engage you in fewer subjects.
