NSF CAREER Award  National Science Foundation Faculty Early Career Development Award 5-year grant for untenured faculty members  “Broader Impacts”  Integration of research and educational activities

Broader impacts 1.How well does the activity advance discovery and understanding while promoting teaching, training, and learning? 2.How well does the proposed activity broaden the participation of underrepresented groups (e.g., gender, ethnicity, disability, geographic, etc.)? 3.To what extent will it enhance the infrastructure for research and education, such as facilities, instrumentation, networks, and partnerships? 4.Will the results be disseminated broadly to enhance scientific and technological understanding? 5.What may be the benefits of the proposed activity to society?
