Conference: CISE CAREER Proposal Writing Workshop

学院早期职业发展(Career)计划是美国国家科学基金会最负盛名的奖项，颁发给有潜力在研究和教育中充当学术榜样并在其部门或组织的使命中领导进步的早期职业教师。职业生涯早期的教师在撰写计划书时经常面临挑战，而且他们与NSF项目主任互动的经验往往有限。为了应对这些挑战，该项目将在2023年、2024年和2025年资助一年一度的CISE职业计划书撰写研讨会，旨在每年在弗吉尼亚州亚历山大市的NSF总部或附近建设会议设施。研讨会的目的是为计划申请NSF教师早期职业发展(CALEAR)计划奖的职业早期教师提供指导和支持。研讨会旨在帮助这些人制定成功的研究和教育计划，提供与NSF项目主任会面的平台，并提供与其他职业生涯早期的CESE教职员工交流想法的机会。研讨会每年预计将有约250名符合职业资格的美国大学和学院NSF支持学科的初级教师参加。CISE相关学科的初级教员将获得优先考虑，为来自历史上的黑人学院和大学(HBCU)、来自少数族裔服务机构(MSI)的参与者、妇女、代表人数较少的少数群体成员和残疾人提供旅行支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program is the National Science Foundation’s most prestigious award for early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization. Early-career faculty often face challenges in proposal writing, and they often have limited experience interacting with NSF program directors. To address these challenges, this project will fund the annual CISE CAREER Proposal Writing Workshop in 2023, 2024, and 2025, aiming each year for conference facilities at or close to the NSF headquarters in Alexandria, VA.The purpose of the workshop is to provide guidance and support to early-career faculty members who are planning to apply for the NSF Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program award. The workshop aims to help these individuals in developing successful research and education plans, to provide a platform for meeting with NSF program directors, and to offer networking opportunities for exchanging ideas with other early-career CISE faculty members. Each year, the workshop expects about 250 CAREER-eligible junior faculty in NSF-supported disciplines at U.S. universities and colleges to attend. Preferences will be given to junior faculty in CISE-related disciplines, with travel support for participants from historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs), from minority-serving institutions (MSIs), women, members of underrepresented minority groups, and persons with disabilities.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.
