POSTPONED Navigating NSF's Merit Review Process

3:00 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.
Main Library Green Room Fourth Floor or Zoom Directions to event location

This event will be rescheduled for a later date. Please contact our office at 432-4499 if you have any questions or concerns.


This Coffee Break will take participants on a journey through the National Science Foundation Merit Review system. Participants will be introduced to the structure of NSF and the path that proposals take from pre-submission through award or decline. When evaluating NSF proposals, reviewers consider two criteria, Intellectual Merit and Broader Impacts. The Intellectual Merit criterion encompasses the potential to advance knowledge; the Broader Impacts criterion encompasses the potential to benefit society and contribute to the achievement of specific, desired societal outcomes. These issues apply both to the technical aspects of the proposal and the way in which the project may make broader contributions. To that end, reviewers are asked to evaluate all proposals against these two criteria.
