Description

Because of the current pandemic our 2021 HIS STEM Resource Hub Jumpstart workshops have been moved to a virtual platform.  The workshop provides basic insight and instruction on how to compete for NSF funding.  The workshop prepares attendees to submit applications to the NSF HSI STEM (https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2020/nsf20599/nsf20599.htm)

The content will focus on preparing grants for the new NSF HSI Initiative that seeks to increase grant support for STEM Education in Hispanic Serving Institutions (due date August 25, 2021, Last Wednesday in August, Annually Thereafter)

During the event, participants will have a rare opportunity to seek advice from successful grant applicants, to direct questions to experienced and knowledgeable grant awardees, and to closely analyze a sample proposal to learn which pitfalls to avoid.
