4、expertise/interests Your career/life goals Your position/resources Your proposal should fit into your life plan,Your Strategic Plan,A strategic plan has three parts: Where are you today? Where do you want to be in the future (5, 10, 20 years from now)? How do you get from here to there?,Your Proposa

5、l,Should advance you toward your life goals Should be a stepping stone to the next thing Should be compatible with your institutions goals Should represent a contribution to society at large,DOs,Have a strategic plan Build on your strengths Differentiate this proposal from your Ph.D. thesis work and

6、 other sponsored work Perform thorough literature search and exploratory research before writing the proposal www.fastlane.nsf.gov Journal articles (update with personal contact) Establish and keep your contacts,DONTs,Rush Wait until last minute (1 month) to contact program directors Make the propos

7、ed work (research and education) too broad Make the proposed work too narrow Ask for too much money Ignore rules (Grant Proposal Guide) and misc. items,Getting a Research Topic,NSF,We look for proposals that Are innovative and push the frontiers of knowledge Contribute to national needs and prioriti

8、es Go beyond marginalia Integrate well with educational goals Involve research We do not support (except as incidental to the research goals of the research) Developmental efforts Computer programming Design of Commercialization,The CAREER Research Topic,The CAREER proposal is not a research proposa

9、l The CAREER proposal is a proposal detailing how you will spend $400,000 to enhance your career development Your career involves a research path, not a research project Determine your research pathyour lifelong research goalsand then identify milestones toward your goals Detail the first one or two

10、 as the research projects for your CAREER proposal,Your CAREER Research Path,Lifelong research goals Dont end with a single project May never end Have broad application Examples: To improve our ability to make engineering decisions under uncertainty and risk To perform large-scale modeling of engine

11、ering systems thereby enabling better system optimization To improve our understanding of metal cutting operations enabling improvements in machining,The Selected Research Topic,It must be research It must not have been done before It must be significant There must be higher than probability zero th

12、at you can do it It must lend itself to a viable research plan You must have the facilities to accomplish the research It should fit into your strategic plan,What is Research?,Research is the process of finding out something that we (everyone) dont already know Scientific research builds upon the ex

13、tant knowledge base and it is repeatable and verifiable,Groundwork,Know your field: What is the current state-of-the-art Who are the top ten researchers What they are doing right now Where they get their funding What they consider to be the key research issues Who would likely review your proposal W

14、hat the grant opportunities are,The Research Objective,This is probably the hardest part of the proposal Examples of how not to do it: The objective of my research is to provide a quantum leap in the design of anti-gravity boots. The goal of this project is to develop an integrated modeling tool for

15、 the hardening process. The goal of this project is to develop innovative advances to enhance wire sawing processes. Rapid prototyping machines are an important part of the vast array of tools. This research will bridge the accuracy gap in these processes by developing theoretical and technological

16、means to implement significant gains in accuracy.,The Research Objective,How to do it right: The research objective of this project is to measure the cross-section of the muon-nutrino interaction at 5 GeV. The research objective of this proposal is to determine which physical phenomena govern chip f

17、ormation in brittle materials, and to mathematically model those phenomena. The research goal of this project is to account for uncertainty in engineering design decision making through the application of utility theory.,The Research Objective,How to do it wrong (“actual” submissions): This project

18、aims to advance the research in predictive modeling for manufacturing process optimization. The proposed study will significantly advance the theory of random fields. This study will develop modeling and simulation-based technologies for building construction. New methods in robust optimization are

19、proposed for optimizing complex models under uncertainty.,The Research Objective,Doing it right: Begin: “The research objective of this project is.” Limit: 25 words or less Be specific about what you intend to find out Be specific about what you intend to find out Be specific about what you intend t

20、o find out Be sure your statement is comprehensible Put it up frontsentence one, paragraph one, page one Do not give a weather report or state-of-the-union address,Finding a Home,Questions,Is your “research” research? If it isnt, it doesnt belong at NSF If the answer is “no,” skip to the end, look f

21、or support from other sources If the answer is “yes,” what is your research topic? The right NSF home for your research depends on the topic of your research, not on the application of your research Be prepared to answer the question: “What is your research objective?” (25 words or less),Your Fundin

25、als Multi-scale,Sensors/Control & Optimization,DMII Academic Research Topics,Should I Meet My Program Officer?,Why? What do you intend to gain? Or is your goal to schmooze? (It doesnt help) Dont even think about taking your program officer to lunch If you decide to meet: Be prepared to listen (you d

26、ont learn by talking) Be prepared with questions Remember, the program officer is not the panel You can get a free trip to NSF (more later),Questions You Shouldnt Ask a Program Director,Is NSF interested in my topic? So, will you fund my research? Is this a good research topic? What research topic d

27、o you think I should work on? What are my odds? But this is my last chance, what can I do? If I send a copy of my proposal to you, will you help me edit it?,Catch 22,My research doesnt fit in any single NSF program, how about joint submission/review? Did you formulate a clear research objective? Is

28、your research objective too broad? Do you want to consider focusing your scope? Suppose my research really does span multiple programs? Contact all relevant program directors,How Could a Meeting Help?,Your program director can: Give advice on proposal submission Help you understand a review of a pre

29、vious proposal Point you to resources you can use to help write a better proposal next time Give general guidance on good proposal writing Give you ideas for collaborations,How Could a Meeting Help?,Writing the Summary,NSF Design, Service and Manufacturing Grantees and Research Conference,Writing th

30、e Summary,The most important statement is your statement of the research objective It should be sentence 1 of paragraph 1 Do not begin with a weather report: “The sky is falling. Tools are breaking. Designs are failing” Do not begin with a state-of-the-union address: “It is imperative that the natio

31、n develop a strong manufacturing base” Remember, this is not a tech paper, it is not a murder mystery (where we find out what the objective is on page 15) Dont forget the Intellectual Merit and Broader Impact statements,What We Want to Know,What is your research objective? This is what directs your

32、proposal to the appropriate program What is your approach? Outline just two or three sentences What is the specific research contribution you will make to the knowledge base (the intellectual merit)? If successful, what will be the benefit to society (the broader impact)?,Remember,Your proposal will

33、 be returned without review if, in your Summary: You fail to include explicit statements of intellectual merit and broader impact (entitle them Intellectual Merit, Broader Impactthis is not a time for creativity) The font is too small The margins are too narrow Or if you have an unauthorized attachm
