Abstract
In this workshop, Molly Throgmorton, a research development specialist and certified research administrator (CRA), presents an overview of the National Science Foundation as a federal funding agency. Funding priorities, solicitation types, and proposal resources comprise the first segment of the workshop. Then, a panel of U of A NSF awardees offers guidance on how to find funding opportunities, provides tips for developing successful proposals, and gives advice regarding the administrative process of proposal preparation. The three panelists are Steve Boss, professor of environmental dynamics and sustainability; Narasimhan Rajaram, associate professor of biomedical engineering; and Cynthia Sides, assistant vice chancellor for research and innovation and director of research advancement.
While this workshop focuses on the basics of NSF funding and is primarily designed for new investigators, more experienced investigators may find the information useful.
