Virtual Workshop on NSF Cyberinfrastructure Funding
The Minority Serving – Cyberinfrastructure Consortium (MS-CC) is excited to collaborate with the American Indian Higher Education Consortium (AIHEC) and The Quilt on a two-part virtual workshop series.
- Our first virtual workshop in the series was held on Nov. 8, 2023. Download the workshop materials and presentations.
- Our second workshop is planned for January 2024 and a date will be announced soon.
The workshop series discuss National Science Foundation (NSF) Cyberinfrastructure (CI) funding Programs targeted for representatives of historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs), tribal colleges and universities (TCUs), and under-resourced minority-serving institutions (MSIs) and their cyberinfrastructure collaborators.
The goals of this workshop series are to train constituents at HBCUs, TCUs, and under-resourced MSIs, as well as their collaborators, on relevant NSF CI funding programs, approaches to develop campus CI goals and strategies, important first steps and tools for grant proposal development, and identifying potential CI collaborators.
Topics discussed during part one of the workshop in Nov. 2023 included:
- NSF funding program overviews
- Science and education driver identification and engagement
- Collaborator identification & engagement – research and education networks, lead universities
- Proposal and CI plan development
Who should attend?
These workshops are intended for campus IT leaders, IT staff, faculty, and administrators at HBCUs, TCUs, and under-resourced MSIs, who often wear multiple hats at their institution. We also strongly encourage potential CI collaborators of these institutions, such as regional networks and collaborating universities, to join us at the workshops.
