SYNOPSIS

The Directorate for Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences (SBE) offers Minority Postdoctoral Research Fellowships and Research Starter Grants in an effort to increase the diversity of researchers who participate in NSF programs in the social, behavioral and economic sciences and thereby increase the participation of scientists from underrepresented groups in selected areas of science in the United States.  These activities (postdoctoral fellowships and follow-up research starter grants) support training and research in the areas of social, behavioral  and economic sciences within the purview of NSF.


EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY

This program provides educational opportunities for  Postdoctoral Fellows. This program provides indirect funding for students at this level or focuses on educational developments for this group such as curricula development, training or retention. To inquire about possible funding opportunities not directly from NSF, please look at the active awards for this program.
