Broader Impacts Seminar Session 1: Broader Impacts 101
The National Science Foundation considers two criteria in their review of proposals: intellectual merit and broader impacts (BI). Broader impacts relate to how the proposed research will "benefit society or advance desired societal outcomes" and is increasingly used as the differentiator between which excellent proposals to fund or not. The Training Team from the NSF-supported Advancing Research Impact in Society (ARIS) organization will conduct five interactive virtual workshops throughout February and March 2023.
The Broader Impacts 101 workshop has helped thousands of people make sense of BI criterion and has empowered them to approach their grant writing with more clarity and confidence. This activity based-workshop will cover the history of the BI criterion, provide strategies for conceptualizing, developing, implementing, and evaluating BI activities, and share tips on leveraging existing resources and establishing robust partnerships to build your "BI identity."
