A number of Federal agencies and private foundations offer early career awards. These programs differ depending upon the sponsor, but they feature a number of common elements that are useful to master for these and other grant applications. The workshop presenter,\u00a0<\/span>Professor Carl A. Batt<\/a>, has over 30 years of experience in grant proposals from the perspective of a successful PI, reviewer, and panel manager. He has successfully obtained more than $70M in external funding from federal agencies \u2014 including NSF, NIH, DOJ, DOD, USDA, and NASA \u2014 and private foundations and industry sponsors. The workshop will cover the array of sponsors and the basic elements of grant writing, taking reviewers, panels and program managers into consideration. The focus will be on the NSF CAREER program as a prototypical opportunity that stresses the applicant\u2019s plan for advancing as a teacher-scholar. Grant components, including specific aims, research plans, and the NSF-specific sections on education and broader impact, will be addressed.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
