National Science Foundation 教师 Early Career Development Program

The National Science Foundation (NSF) 教师 Early Career Development (CAREER) Program is a Foundation-wide activity that offers the National Science Foundation's most prestigious awards in support of early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization. Activities pursued by early-career faculty should build a firm foundation for a lifetime of leadership in integrating education and research. NSF encourages submission of CAREER proposals from early-career faculty at all CAREER-eligible organizations and especially encourages women, members of underrepresented minority groups, and persons with disabilities to apply.

U (I 研究 and 教师 Development (RFD) team offers proposal development support at all levels, from finding funding to contacting program officers, 审查提案文件, 协助重新提交, and coordinating large proposals. 请填写 教师 Request for Proposal Development Assistance form 请求RFD服务.

Please consult the 资源 list on this page for current guides, checklists and videos designed to increase the competitiveness of your CAREER proposal.

全年工作 is our year-long program that supports faculty applying to this unique NSF program.

Stay tuned for the 全年工作 events planned for 2022-23. In the meantime, reach out to the RFD团队 with your questions or for more information.
