This book addresses the lack of systematic training in journal publication and grant pursuit for new scholars, two key skills in today's academic landscape. It introduces 'grantology,' the science of pursuing grants, providing practical, evidence-based strategies. Structured like a graduate course, each chapter follows a five-step cognitive sequence based on Daniel Kahneman's intuitive judgment theory. The book explores over fifty real-life cases, draws from nearly two hundred research articles, and compares grantology with journalology. With scientific insights and actionable advice, this guide supports junior researchers, graduate students, and new grant writers in developing the skills needed to pursue competitive grants and advance their careers.
