NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP)


From the National Science Foundation. This announcement is for near-beginning graduate student support--it provides for three years of support for students in areas of NSF's remit, which is quite broad, including the social and behavioral sciences.

Given funding constraints that NC State--like many universities--are experiencing, I hope that our doctoral programs will make a concerted effort to work with their graduate students to apply for this award. Of course, my office is available to help with the paperwork requiremensts, including Fastlane registration. I am confident that we have some students who would do quite well in this competition.

The NSFs summary follows after the jump. The URL for this announcement is http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2011/nsf11582/nsf11582.htm?WT.mc_id=USNSF_25&WT.mc_ev=click. The deadline for social sciences and psychology is November 16, 2011.
