Engineering Research Initiation Program Webinar

About this event

The NSF Directorate for Engineering will host a webinar about the Engineering Research Initiation (ERI) program solicitation (24-590) on Friday, September 6, 2024, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern. 

The Engineering Research Initiation (ERI) program supports new investigators as they initiate their research programs and advance in their careers as researchers, educators, and innovators. This funding opportunity aims to broaden the base of investigators involved in engineering research and therefore is limited to investigators who are not affiliated with “very high research activity” R1 institutions (according to the Carnegie Classification https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu/).

Program directors from the NSF Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental and Transport Systems (CBET), Division of Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation (CMMI), and Division of Electrical, Communications and Cybersystems (ECCS) will describe the program and answer questions.

The planned agenda is:

  • Introduction of and key changes in the updated solicitation
  • General questions & answers
