The Great Training Center is sponsoring a workshop for writing and designing NSF proposals.

When: January 25, 2018, 8:30AM – 4:30PM                                                                      Where: Case Western Reserve University

This one-day comprehensive workshop is geared towards those who wish to submit winning research proposals to the National Science Foundation (NSF), in time for the next NSF grant submission deadline. Participants will understand how to navigate the NSF website and FastLane, focus on the key sections of successful proposals and demonstrate that their projects merit the excellence and innovations that lead to the top of other submissions. Participants will also be engaged in interactive exercises, writing, lectures and discussions that will leave them with an understanding of how to research, write and develop a specific project.

Areas to be covered include the:

1. Overall strategic plan of grant writing
2. Types of awards and NSF funding, including what to look for in a grant application
3. Proposal preparation process and submission mechanisms
4. Characteristics, content and function of the various pieces of the proposal

Participants will learn how to:

1. Compose the pieces of an NSF research grant proposal
2. Understand the inner workings of NSF’s Merit Review and the rating scores
3. Develop and write the Intellectual Merit and Broader Impacts sections
4. Package superior proposal submissions
5. Avoid the fatal flaws of a grant
6. Effectively write and approach resubmissions
