Chemistry (CHE)
Submission Windows: Unsolicited CHE Proposals
Division of Chemistry Proposal Submission Windows for Unsolicited Proposals The Division of Chemistry has two proposal submission windows for unsolicited proposals (including RUI and GOALI proposals): - July 1 - July 31
- November 1 - November 30
Principal Investigators (PIs) may submit their proposal in either window. However, PIs should consider submitting their proposal in July if the proposal is bio-oriented or in November if it is materials research-oriented in order to enhance co-funding opportunities. If one of the dates falls on a weekend or holiday, the due date becomes the next business day.
Realignment of CHE Programs
The NSF Division of Chemistry (CHE) is excited to announce a realignment of our programmatic structure. Please read our Dear Colleague Letter at http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf09048. The realignment has established eight new programs, which will accept proposals starting in the July 2009 submission window. The new programs are: - Chemical Catalysis
- Chemical Measurement and Imaging
- Chemical Structure, Dynamics and Mechanisms
- Chemical Synthesis
- Chemistry of Life Processes
- Environmental Chemical Sciences
- Macromolecular, Supramolecular and Nanochemistry
- Theory, Models and Computational Methods
For additional information on the realignment, please refer to the documents below: - A "Realignment of the Division of Chemistry Programs" brochure, available at http://www.nsf.gov/mps/che/realign/brochure.pdf
- A decision tree illuminating "Finding a Home for an Unsolicited Proposal," available at http://www.nsf.gov/mps/che/realign/decisiontree.pdf
