Description

NSF Day at the NCURA Annual Meeting is a workshop concept designed by senior NSF and NCURA program planners determined to distill all the best ingredients of NSF Regional Grants Conferences and NCURA Workshops. The workshop begins with NSF program officers presenting the "do's and don'ts" of successful proposal preparation, submission and review. NSF Program Officers will also focus on a number of NSF crosscutting programs such as CAREER, GOALI and REU. This will be followed by an in-depth discussion of NSF policies and procedures of importance to research administrators. The workshop will be rounded out with important discussions regarding compliance issues and the use and features of Research.gov.
