  3. How Can We Help? BEFORE WRITING THE PROPOSAL ❖ We Can Talk Through An Idea With Someone on Our Team– Helpful to Have a 1-2 Page Summary ➢ Appropriateness of Idea, Scope of Work ➢ What Agency Would Be Appropriate for Funding ➢ Selection of Team Members DURING THE WRITING OF THE PROPOSAL ► Provide feedback on how to write it and what to include ❖ Review Grant Once Written – Needs To Be 1 to 2 months Before Due, NOT the Week Before It Is Due ONCE AWARDED ➢ Help Advise With Grant Management ➢ Advise on Dear Colleague Letters and When Appropriate To Do a Supplement

  4. Let's Talk About NSF Funding Opportunities ❖ What do I want to do? ❖ What are my ideas? ❖ Does NSF have a program that is aligned with my idea? IF IT DOES NOT, LOOK ELSEWHERE!

  5. Big Picture – Proposal Process • Form Ideas, Team Identify NSF Program • READ Solicitation • Search for Previously Awarded Grants • Prepare 1-2 Page Summary • Talk with Program Officer or Seek Mentor Faculty NSF Institution • Submit Proposal before deadline. • NSF Review Process • Award or feedback to Institution •DGA Makes the Award NOT the Program Officer • Get Approval from Grants Office, Chair/Dean/VP • Seek Out Resources • Write Grant • Have Someone Outside of Field–Read Grant! Do They Understand IT? 5

  6. Funding Mechanisms Solicitation: formal NSF publications that encourage the submission of proposals in specific program areas of interest to NSF Program Description: broad, general depictions of programs or activities in an NSF Directorate, office, or division Dear Colleague Letters provide general information to the community; announce special opportunities for competitions or supplements to existing NSF awards 6

  7. Supplements 4. Supplemental Support (quoted from the PAPPG) ► a. In unusual circumstances, small amounts of supplemental funding and up to six months of additional support may be requested to assure adequate completion of the original scope of work. Such requests for supplemental funding support must be signed and submitted by the AOR via use of NSF's electronic systems at least two months prior to the need for the additional funds and must be adequately justified. Program Officers may make decisions regarding whether or not to recommend a small supplement without merit review of the supplemental request. Requests for larger supplements may require external merit review.

  8. Overview of NSF Programs of Interest 1. Advanced Technological Education (ATE) (21-598) DCL 22-059: Ocean Technical Workforce Education DCL 21-076: Supplemental Funding for Skills Training in Advanced Research & Technology (START) DCL 19-057: International Training and Education in Advanced Technologies (ATE-I) DCL 20-054: Undergraduate Research Experiences in Advanced Technological Education (ATE-URE) 2. NSF Scholarships in STEM (S-STEM) 3. Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE) PD 21-7980 Advancing Innovation and Impact in Undergraduate STEM Education at Two-year Institutions of Higher Education 4. IUSE HSI Program (DUE and HRD) 5. Experiential Learning for Emerging and Novel Technologies (ExLENT) (TIP and EDU)

  9. TIPS: Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships

  10. ATE: Workforce Readiness • Innovative strategies growing a Skilled Technical Workforce. Two-Year Institutions (lead) Industry • Public-Private Partnerships • Supports curriculum development; professional development of college faculty and secondary school teachers; career pathways; and other activities. High Schools Four-year Institutions • Two-year colleges in leadership roles

  11. Advanced Technological Education (ATE) ► Proposals must be submitted using research.gov. Forms have changed such as current and pending ► All proposals are required to have either as the PI or Co-PI faculty from a 2-yr IHE. ► Recommended that with a 2-yr/4-yr partnership, the 2-yr institution be the fiscal lead ► Remember the organization submitting the grant OWNS the grant not the PI or the Co-PI – therefore the PI and Co-PIs must have organizational representation ► Scholarships can’t be supported, but funds to support students in industry internships may be requested. But it would be advantageous that these become sustainable. ► A new solicitation is to be written this year for the October 2024 submission

  12. ATE Program Funding Options Program Tracks Small Consortia for Innovation Applied Research Projects New to ATE Projects Centers $150K - $800K 2-3 years Up to 3M Promotes collaborations to solve problems, Expansion of best practice Up to $350k, 3 years Up to $650k, 3 years ATE Center Resource Centers 5 years 3 years

  13. 1# Solicitation, 2# PAPPG

  14. What Works? Describe a need Provide a detailed plan for how you will address the need including the evidence base for your plan. Include project personnel Describe appropriate expertise to carry out the project. Provide evaluation and assessment plan How will you determine project success? Describe dissemination of the results and outcomes Inform the community of the knowledge gained.

  15. Tips for Proposal Writing ► Read the solicitation carefully. The solicitation supersedes the PAPPG ► Do Your Homework, find out what has already been funded using www.nsf.gov Award Search (ATE Program Element code: 7412). If the idea is in biotechnology, contact the center. We can help and also connect you with others who doing similar work. ► Prepare the 1-2 pager -an executive summary to share. ► Then speak with a Program Officer, ATE mentoring project, or current ATE PI ► Have someone with no knowledge of your field read the final grant. Do they understand? Check everything you upload Submit ahead of time!
