Grant-writing Bootcamp for the National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation serves as the funding source for approximately 27 percent of the total federal budget for basic research conducted at U.S. colleges and universities. In many fields such as mathematics, computer science, and the social sciences, NSF is the major source of federal support. In this five-session webinar series, we will cover the following topics: the structure and elements of NSF proposals; merit review; strategic development of biosketches; broader impacts; data management plans; and budget development. In addition, the series will include three facilitated discussions with TAMU-CC panelists: NSF Principal Investigators; Experienced NSF Panelists and Reviewers; and Experts on Developing Broader Impacts. The bootcamp is open to faculty, PI-eligible researchers, and postdoctoral scholars. Participants should plan to attend all five sessions.
