About the event
Representatives from the U.S. National Science Foundation Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems (NSF CBET) Section of the NSF Directorate for Engineering will host an online outreach and networking workshop focused on proposal development for the NSF Faculty Early Career Development (NSF CAREER) program.
The agencywide NSF CAREER program supports 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. Activities pursued by early-career faculty should build a firm foundation for a lifetime of leadership in integrating education and research.
The NSF CBET CAREER workshop will include:
- Guidance on CAREER proposal development.
- Overview of the NSF merit review process.
- Breakout sessions with CBET program directors.
- Opportunities to network with NSF staff and peers.
This virtual workshop will be held on Wednesday, May 6, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
