Introduction to Writing Grants for the National Science Foundation
It is important for scholars to receive funding to support their projects and provide services to families. However, the grant writing process can take a lot of time and preparation. This is particularly challenging for those that are not familiar with the application and review process of the funding institution.
In this webinar, presenter Chalandra M. Bryant, Ph.D. will provide an introduction to the National Science Foundation’s process of funding proposals. Specifically, she will demonstrate how to find funding opportunities within the Directorate of Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences. She will also share with attendees instructions for writing effective broader impact statements and discuss the review process of proposals.
Overall, attendees will leave this webinar with the ability to:
- Describe the various divisions and programs within the Directorate of Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE).
- Identify funding mechanisms in SBE.
- Execute higher quality impact statements.
- Explain the Merit Review Process.
Approved for 1 hour of CFLE continuing education credit.
