The National Science Foundation (NSF) will hold an open workshop entitled "Navigating the NSF System" during the 2015 American Geophysical Union Fall Meetings in San Francisco.

This workshop is designed to provide information for creating effective submissions to NSF, learning more about new initiatives as well as early career specific options, connecting directly with NSF program officers, and to address questions including:

  • How do you make your proposal as NSF-savvy as possible?
  • How do you best describe your broader impacts?
  • What is cutting edge in data management?
  • How do you identify the best program for an application?
  • How do you access available education and outreach funds?
  • How are initiatives different than core programs?
  • How do you identify new initiatives and apply for these opportunities?
  • How can you design effective integrated research?

This workshop is open to all AGU Fall Meeting attendees and will be particularly helpful to early-career and mid-career participants, especially graduate students, post-docs, researchers, and tenure-track faculty thinking about applying for NSF funding for the first time. The workshop is made possible through a partnership of the Earth Science Women’s Network and AGU Education.
