The National Science Foundation and Texas A&M University-Commerce will
be holding a one-day workshop on Monday, November 14, 2011. This
workshop is primarily designed for researchers and educators less
experienced in proposing to the NSF; however, more experienced proposers
and NSF grantees may well find the workshop useful and informative.  It
is our hope that events such as this will stimulate new interest in NSF
programs at institutions that have not been among our traditional
customers, as well as at premier research institutions. We want to
extend an invitation to you and to anyone else at your institution who
would like to attend this workshop and learn more about the NSF and its
programs.  

The workshop will provide an overview of the Foundation, its mission,
priorities, and budget.  It will cover the NSF proposal and merit review
process and NSF programs that cut across disciplines.  Additionally,
representatives from the seven NSF directorates and the Office of
International Science and Engineering and the Office of Integrative
Activities will make presentations on their programs and will also be
available informally and in breakout sessions for discussions of
potential research proposals.  

The National Science Foundation is charged with keeping our nation's
science and engineering enterprise healthy, dynamic, and relevant and
with advancing science, mathematics, engineering, and technology
education at all levels from pre-K through postdoctoral.  

The workshop will be held at the Sam Rayburn Student Center on the
A&M-Commerce campus.  There is no registration fee; however,
preregistration is required. Please register by November 8, 2011.  You
can register on the NSF web site at
http://www.nsf.gov/events/event_summ.jsp?cntn_id=121574&org=NSF.
Registration is limited, so please register early. We hope to see you
there.
