NSF Award Honors Promising New Faculty

released May 9, 2000

The National Science Foundation's Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program offers award opportunities for faculty members who show the potential to become the academic leaders of the 21st century. CAREER awardees will be selected based on their creative, integrative, and effective plans for their research and education careers. These plans should build a firm foundation for a lifetime of integrated contributions to research and education. This is the most prestigious award NSF offers for new faculty members.

Between 200 and 300 awards will be granted over five years. The deadlines for applying are June 25, 26, and 27, depending on the faculty member's field of study. For more information, see http://www.nsf.gov/cgi-bin/getpub?nsf0089.
