Dear Colleague Letter: National Science Foundation and National Institute of Justice Collaboration in the Social, Behavioral and Forensic Sciences
The National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Justice have announced that the NSF's Directorate for Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences (SBE) has signed an MOU with the NIJ "that outlines a framework for cooperation and collaboration in the social, behavioral, and forensic sciences." This announcement creates very exciting opportunities for our college, and I encourage you to share this information broadly with your colleagues.
This MOU is not, as one might thing, merely about forensic science. Instead, this MOU suggests a very broad range of social and behavioral science questions and applications of interest to both agencies. With this in mind, all the social science departments and their faculties may find this announcement important for their work.
I would be happy to work with faculty with an interest in research that is of interest to NIJ and NSF. I know Susan Sterett, one of the program officers involved in this initiative, and would be pleased to make introductions or suggest strategies. As always, please direct your questions to me and my office.
The announcement follows the jump.
