NSF CAREER Workshop Series
The NSF CAREER award is both a highly prestigious and highly competitive funding opportunity for early-career faculty. This year’s deadline for submissions is July 26, 2021.
In this series of three two-hour workshops, we will work together to learn the details of the program and strategies for success from current and former NSF program staff, experienced faculty, and past CAREER awardees. As part of the workshop, faculty will draft their proposal summary, broader impacts and education plan and receive feedback from peers and experts.
