Pan-American Advanced Studies Institutes Program
(PASI)
Unsolicited Proposals for other Regions
Proposals for Advanced Study Institutes in other geographic regions will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Prior consultation with the region appropriate Program Manager is required as follows: for Africa, Near East & South Asia: Wayne Patterson; for Europe & Eurasia: Bonnie Thompson; for East Asia & Pacific: Myra Mcauliffe. Submit such proposals at least one year prior to the proposed event. (Select Grant Proposal Guide (GPG) with OISE as NSF Unit/division and Other Global Learning & Training as program.) Proposals will compete for funding by OISE and other NSF funds, which may differ by region.
CONTACTS
PROGRAM GUIDELINES
A revised version of the NSF Proposal & Award Policies &
Procedures Guide (PAPPG), NSF 09-1, was issued on October 1, 2008
and is effective for proposals submitted on or after January 5, 2009. Please be
advised that the guidelines contained in NSF 09-1 apply to proposals submitted
in response to this funding opportunity. Proposers who opt to submit
prior to January 5th, 2009, must also follow the guidelines
contained in NSF 09-1.
One of the most significant changes to the PAPPG is
implementation of the mentoring provisions of the America COMPETES Act.
Each proposal that requests funding to support postdoctoral researchers must
include, as a separate section within the 15-page project description, a
description of the mentoring activities that will be provided for such
individuals. Proposals that do not include a separate section on
mentoring activities within the Project Description will be returned without
review (see the PAPP Guide Part I: Grant Proposal Guide Chapter
II.C.2.d for further information).

SYNOPSIS
The Pan American Advanced Study Institutes (PASI) Program, is a jointly supported initiative between the Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Science Foundation (NSF). Pan American Advanced Studies Institutes are short courses ranging in length from ten days to one month duration, involving lectures, demonstrations, research seminars and discussions at the advanced graduate and post-doctoral level. PASIs aim to disseminate advanced scientific and engineering knowledge and stimulate training and cooperation among researchers of the Americas in the mathematical, physical, and biological sciences, and in engineering fields. Whenever feasible, an interdisciplinary approach is recommended.
EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY
This program provides educational opportunities for
Graduate Students,
Postdoctoral Fellows
.
This program provides indirect funding for students at this level or focuses on educational developments for this group such as curricula development, training or retention. To inquire about possible funding opportunities not directly from NSF, please look at the active awards for this program.
