Synopsis of Program:
The Ethics Education in Science and Engineering (EESE) program considers proposals for research and educational projects to improve ethics education in all of the fields of science and engineering that NSF supports, including in interdisciplinary or inter-institutional contexts. Proposals must focus on improving ethics education for graduate students in those fields, or on developing summer post-baccalaureate ethics education activities or activities that transition students from undergraduate to graduate education. The program will entertain proposals in graduate ethics education in science and engineering generally, but is particularly interested in proposals addressing issues involving the international or global context and those addressing issues of intellectual property, including scientific publishing.
Internal Application Procedure
If you are interested in claiming the one (1) proposal slot, please provide the following:
- A estimated cumulative budget:
- No more than a Five (5) page summary covering the following:
- Explain how the proposed project will address the program objective: to improve ethics education in any of the fields of science and engineering that NSF supports.
- EESE requires proposals to focus on improving ethics education for graduate students in one or more of those fields. Proposals must focus also on ethical issues that arise in research or graduate research education, particularly in interdisciplinary or inter-institutional contexts.
- The expected outcomes of the project
- Reviews from any previous proposal submission
We will need to receive your project summary by close of business on Feb.11, 2008
Submit the summary to:
- fastlane-admin@umich.edu
