The Office of Sponsored Programs and Research Development (OSP) is excited to host a new virtual NSF CAREER Peer-to-Peer Workshop Series.
Program Overview
The workshops are open to Cornell Assistant Professors who plan to submit an NSF CAREER proposal this July 2023. There will be three sessions, all taking place via Zoom. While attendance at all sessions is not required, we recommend attending the May session if you would like to participate in a June or July peer-to-peer session. You are welcome to join both the June and July peer-to-peer sessions or may attend only one.

Session 2: Peer-to-Peer Workshopping

In this session, you will exchange feedback with a faculty peer NSF CAREER applicant. You will be paired with one to two colleagues from a similar discipline (after submitting your draft by June 13th). During the workshop, pairs will discuss their feedback and brainstorm how to further strengthen their proposals. Toward the end of the hour, we will reconvene as a group and discuss any questions you might have. You can attend both June and July workshops or join only one.
