The Division of Research invites faculty to attend an upcoming webinar on the NSF Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program, presented by our partner, McAllister & Quinn.

The NSF Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) award is considered one of the most prestigious funding awards for early career faculty. The focus of the program is to develop faculty as both researchers and educators. Developing a competitive CAREER proposal is different from writing a standard NSF grant proposal. Join McAllister & Quinn for this instructional webinar on how to craft a compelling and competitive NSF CAREER proposal. This virtual meeting will be informative for faculty considering an application to the NSF CAREER program in this or future years. 

Topics to be covered include:

• Overview of NSF’s vision for the CAREER program
• Working with program officers to ensure research fit 
• Developing a 5-to-10-year research agenda
• Differences between Broader Impacts and the CAREER Education Plan
• Competitive Intelligence to strengthen your proposal
