SUMMARY:RFCUNY Brown Bag Research Webinars: NSF Grants for CUNY Early Career Researchers
DESCRIPTION:Overview: Researchers who are beginning their careers have not developed the body of research that mid- career or senior faculty have accumulated over time and are at a disadvantage when competing for NSF research grants. NSF has set aside funding to early-career researchers working across a wide range of research areas where early career researchers are only competing against each other rather than against mid-career and senior faculty. This webinar highlights key funding opportunities especially appropriate for early-career researchers at the rank of assistant professor. Early-career researchers are also eligible (and encouraged) to compete for NSF’s core grants\, special initiatives\, and other funding mechanisms. However\, the success rates of early career faculty that target grants that are focused on early career faculty are generally higher. Join us while we explore these opportunities on NSF grants for early career faculty. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAudience: All CUNY Early Career Science and Engineering FacultyPresenter: John Tsapogas\, RFCUNY APPS DirectorRegistration: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/1050292430685358943Webinar ID: 456-177-835

SUMMARY:Works in the Works: The Beastiary - technical direction for new plays in development
DESCRIPTION:The Humanities Department in its Works in the Works series has the following presentation: \n\n\n\nSpeaker: John McCullough: Entertainment Technology Department \n\n\n\nAbstract: “Technical direction for plays is the pursuit of a technical answer to an artistic question: how can the artistic vision of the playwright\, director\, and design team be realized within the temporal\, physical\, and budgetary constraints of the production. For new plays\, this challenge is compounded by the inherent dynamism of artistic collaboration. This talk will discuss an approach to the task of technical direction with a focus on a production of The Beastiary at Ars Nova.” \n\n\n\nAdditional details to follow

SUMMARY:RFCUNY Brown Bag Research Webinars: Writing Competitive Grant Applications Focusing on Project Summaries and Descriptions
DESCRIPTION:Overview: Project summaries and descriptions are important sections in grant proposals that need to be carefully presented with a focus on the needs of the Principal Investigator project and the sponsor program goals. While preparing the document\, emphasis should be given to the quality of information and how the information is organized\, structured\, and presented. These documents are often written by faculty in a fast- paced manner to meet sponsor deadline requirements. This webinar will provide faculty with guidance and training on how to present the important sections of these documents to make them competitive. The webinar will include the following topics: Effective proposal titles; Setting a realistic scope for the project; Outlining the scientific problems/challenges that the project will solve; Describing the hypotheses of the research; Setting project goals\, objectives\, and outcomes; Identifying project benefits to your field of study\, your institution\, your students\, and society; Employing and presenting the right methods; Employing the right team (researchers\, faculty\, students); Designing an effective management plan (advisory committees); and Establishing stages\, timelines\, deadlines\, and milestones. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAudience: All CUNY FacultyPresenter: John Tsapogas\, RFCUNY APPS DirectorRegistration: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/1949820485554824282Webinar ID: 833-970-667
