In addition to its intellectual merits, each proposal submitted to the National Science Foundation (NSF) is reviewed according to the merits of its BI plan, or the benefits of the proposed research to society. Come to this hands-on workshop to learn more about NSF’s BI criterion and major BI goals, the six essential elements of a BI plan, and key resources to help you develop a winning proposal. Participants will leave the workshop with a draft BI plan. Presenters include Lauren Aerni-Flessner, Grant and Project Management Specialist, College of Engineering; Miles McNall, Director for Community-Engaged Research, University Outreach and Engagement; and Sara Steenrod, Grant Consultant, Office of Research and Innovation.
