This session for pre-tenured faculty is designed to provide tips and advice on writing NSF CAREER proposals, focusing on both the overall proposal content and the Educational Outreach component. Cornell faculty who have won such awards and have participated in CAREER proposal review panels at NSF will share their advice and identify resources available from the Cornell Office of Proposal Advancement and the James McCormick Family Teaching Excellence Institute, as well as Education and Outreach specialists from Cornell and outside partners.
The session will be split into two parts, Part I: 11:00am – 12:00pm will focus on the Research Proposal, Review and general tips on writing and submission. Part II: 12:30-1:30pm will focus specifically on the Education and outreach portion of the proposal, and will allow you to meet and potentially partner with outreach specialists. Lunch will be served between the two sessions from 12:00-12:30pm.
*Please ensure you have read the NSF CAREER guidelines, available here, prior to the session. THIS SESSION IS LIMITED TO ASSISTANT PROFESSORS ONLY.
