Dear Colleagues:

The Directorate for Engineering (ENG), Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems (CBET) has changed the unsolicited proposal submission window for all 17 programs to one single submission window, October 1 through November 5, 2014, by 5 pm submitter's local time. The window changes are effective immediately and will continue annually, with future deadline dates (TBD) in either October or November.

The new window dates do not apply to proposals sent to the Division in response to Foundation-wide solicitations with their own target or deadline dates, such as Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) and Major Research Instrumentation.

Those planning to submit proposals for consideration by the Division are encouraged to consult the CBET Division website for information on procedures for submitting proposals, new funding opportunities, and other information about the Division.

Sincerely,

Dr. JoAnn Lighty, Director
Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems
