Georgia Southern University Research Services

From Jean Felman, Head, Policy Office, NSF: Dear Colleagues, Effective March 22, the National Science Foundation (NSF) enabled three new proposal types in the Research.gov Proposal Submission System and in the recently launched Research.gov Proposal Preparation Demo Site. These are the Facilitation Awards for Scientists and Engineers with Disabilities (FASED), Equipment, and Travel proposal types.... New automated compliance checks and associated error and warning messages for these proposal types were also implemented. In addition, proposal withdrawal functionality was added for both single submission (with or without sub-awards) and separately submitted collaborative proposals from multiple organizations. New training resources have also been added to the Research.gov About Proposal Preparation Page: https://www.research.gov/research-por/appmanager//desktop

Faculty mini-workshops (15-30 minutes) are being offered daily through April 2nd to answer questions on using the new website and interface for proposal development and submission: How do I submit a proposal? How do I generate a draft budget? Office of Research Office Hours research.georgiasouthern.edu/orssp/professional-development
