DESCRIPTION:The National Science Foundation and the Jackson State University will be holding a one-day workshop on Wednesday, November 28, 2012. This workshop is primarily designed for researchers and educators less experienced in proposing to the NSF; however, more experienced proposers and NSF grantees may well find the workshop useful and informative. It is our hope that events such as this will stimulate new interest in NSF programs at institutions that have not been among our traditional customers, as well as at premier research institutions. We want to extend an invitation to you and to anyone else at your institution who would like to attend this workshop and learn more about the NSF and its programs.\n\nThe workshop will provide an overview of the Foundation, its mission, priorities, and budget. It will cover the NSF proposal and merit review process and NSF programs that cut across disciplines. Additionally, representatives from the seven NSF directorates, the Office of International Science and Engineering, and the Office of Integrative Activities will make presentations on their programs and will also be available informally and in breakout sessions for discussions of potential research proposals.\n\nThe National Science Foundation is charged with keeping our nation's science and engineering enterprise healthy, dynamic, and relevant and with advancing science, mathematics, engineering and technology education at all levels from pre-K through postdoctoral.\n\nThe workshop will be held at the Mississippi e-Center, 1230 Raymond Road, Jackson. There is a registration fee of $50.00 for this workshop. You can register using the link below. After registering, the registration fee may be paid through PayPal. You will be directed to that site after you register. Please register by Friday, November 16, 2012. Registration is limited, so please register early. We hope to see you there.\n\nContacts\nGeorge M.
