Conference: Partnership to Grow Research Capacity in Emerging Research Institutions

该项目将支持一个面对面的讲习班和辅导活动，以支持NSF的能力建设工作，使为少数群体服务的机构、社区学院以及两年制和四年制机构能够参与区域创新生态系统。 为了支持机构建立合作，确定资源和准备有竞争力的赠款申请，该项目下的活动将连接新兴研究机构（ERI）与研究开发和更广泛的影响工作的专家。具体来说，该项目将利用来自斯佩尔曼学院的促进社会研究影响中心（阿里斯）的资源，和全国研究开发专业人员组织，通过在研究开发和更广泛影响方面建立研究机构与专家之间的关系，提交研究能力建设提案，支持研究机构开展工作。 这些活动将侧重于讲习班参与者与外部组织建立伙伴关系的能力，以促进劳动力发展、研究与开发以及将研究成果转化为实践。 拟议的合作伙伴关系为ERI的研究人员和管理人员提供了一个独特的机会，使他们能够相互合作，并受益于专家的指导，以制定和提交强有力的合作研究提案。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

This project will support an in-person workshop and mentoring activities in support of capacity-building efforts by NSF to enable the participation of minority-serving institutions, community colleges, and two-year and four-year institutions to participate in regional innovation ecosystems. To support institutions in building collaborations, identifying resources, and preparing competitive grant applications, the activities under this project will connect Emerging Research Institutions (ERIs) with experts in research development and broader impacts work.Specifically, the project will leverage resources from the Center for Advancing Research Impact in Society (ARIS), Spelman College, and the National Organization of Research Development Professionals (NORDP) to support ERIs as they work through the submission of research capacity-building proposals by establishing relationships among and between ERIs and experts in research development and broader impacts. The activities will focus on the workshop participants' ability to create partnerships with external organizations to grow in workforce development, research and development, and translation of research to practice. The proposed partnerships represent a unique opportunity for researchers and administrators at ERIs to join with one another and benefit from the guidance of experts to develop and submit strong collaborative research proposals.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
