SYNOPSIS
![](https://webarchive.library.unt.edu/eot2008/20090115235142im_/http://www.nsf.gov/images/bluefade.jpg)
This program encompasses a collection of Foundation-wide activities that provide support for human resource development and infrastructure improvement. The Office of Cross-Directorate Activities (CDA) in the Directorate of Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) directly administers the Minority Postdoctoral Research Fellowships and Supporting Activities and the Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Sites competitions. The CDA Program Director also acts as the SBE representative to a number of NSF-wide, crosscutting programs such as CAREER, GK-12, ADVANCE, and EPSCoR.
In addition, the CDA Program may fund unsolicited proposals for special studies, analyses, and workshops on topics affecting social, behavioral, and economic sciences, particularly issues that span divisional boundaries. Interested persons should discuss their ideas with the program director prior to submitting proposals. These proposals may be submitted any time.
