NSF CAREER Program Workshop
June 04, 2025
10:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. ET
Virtual
The Engineering Research Accelerator & the Center for Faculty Success are jointly hosting a NSF CAREER workshop on June 4, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. over Zoom. This workshop aims to provide early-career faculty who plan to submit a NSF CAREER Award proposal to a program in the NSF’s Directorate for Engineering (ENG) with an overview and impact of the award, noteworthy updates to the 2025 solicitation, a framework to address requirements, and a forum where you can ask former awardees on best practices and lessons learned to distinguish you and your research from advisors, peers, and create a compelling proposal.
The overall agenda is listed below:
- Overview of the NSF Career Award and its impact to faculty research careers – 5-10 minutes
- Detailed opportunity analysis of current solicitation, FAQs & best practices for developing the proposal content along with Accelerator services – 25 minutes
- Q&A with panelists/prior award winners – 45+ minutes (as needed)
For faculty interested in submitting your CAREER proposal in the 2025 cycle: We have arranged for a review of your one-page summary to the workshop. Submit a one-page project summary before May 27, 2025 for a review.
NSF is also hosting several webinars on the NSF CAREER program through different divisions:
