NSF Afternoon: A Funding Workshop
NSF Afternoon: A Glimpse at NSF and How to Successfully Compete for Research Dollars
Modeled on “NSF Days,” this “NSF Afternoon” will provide basic insight and instruction on how to compete for NSF funding for science, engineering and education research. This half day workshop will provide background on the Foundation, its mission, priorities, and budget. We will give an overview on proposal writing, NSF’s merit review process, and programs that fall within our seven scientific and engineering directorates, as well as funding opportunities that cross disciplinary boundaries.
