Research Development Office
Audience: Faculty and Scholars interested in submitting an
NSF proposal
Abstract: NSF expects Principal Investigators to
develop metrics and determine the impact their projects have beyond the
research itself. This session will provide information about:
- Why evaluation plans are
needed and how they contribute positively to the project
- Necessary components of appropriate evaluation plans
- How to decide whether to use an internal or external
evaluator
- How to locate and select an evaluator/partner
- How to budget in the proposal for the costs of
evaluation
- What to do pre-award to help make sure the evaluation
goes well
- Tools and resources available at and outside UNH to
assist faculty in developing these proposal aspects
