CER: Writing Compelling NSF Proposals (Virtual)

Presented by

Paul Ronney, Professor and Chair
Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering
Viterbi School of Engineering
University of Southern California

Summary

Arrrgh! My fantastic proposal was rejected! Why couldn’t those knuckleheads at NSF understand how brilliant my ideas are? Did they even read the proposal? Professor Ronney has served on many NSF panels and has reviewed many well-written (and not-so-well-written) proposals. In this workshop he will help you understand how the review process at NSF and other funding agencies works and provide specific recommendations for increasing your chances of getting funded, including how to anticipate panel dynamics and tailor your proposal accordingly.
