Social Sciences
Colleagues,
I am working with the Office of Research, Innovation and Economic Development (ORIED) to put together a meeting to discuss this very interesting opportunity for collaborations between social scientists and computer scientists. The NSF's EAGER mechanism is designed to fund "high risk, high payoff" projects that, among other things, "engage novel disciplinary or interdisciplinary perspectives." Collaborations between social scientists and computer scientists are bearing significant fruit throughout academe, and NCSU is well positioned to contribute to this emerging research.
ORIED, working with me, will convene a "getting to know you" and "match-making" meeting in mid-January to facilitate forming teams that will write two-page statements of interest to the NSF, as described in the Dear Colleague letter that follows. But if you are already collaborating with computer scientists on projects of interest to NSF, please feel free to start forming teams and let me know if you have done so, so that CHASS and ORIED can help with the process. (For what it's worth, I know the Division Director for SES in the SBE directorate, so can put you in touch if that helps.)
The direct link to the Dear Colleague letter is here; the full letter follows after the jump.
