American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) Frequently Asked Questions
Posted March 27, 2009
Important Notice 131, American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
Posted March 18, 2009
On March 26, NSF Director, Dr. Arden Bement delivered a speech to NSF employees about their implementation of the ARRA. Step include:
NSF already has many highly rated research proposals in hand to consider for funding with ARRA funds. Some research proposals have already been reviewed and others are in the review process. NSF is planning to use the majority of the $2 billion available in Research and Related Activities for proposals that are already in house and will be reviewed and/or awarded prior to Sept. 30, 2009.
-
Grants funded under ARRA will be awarded quickly in order to contribute to new job creation and reinvestment.
-
NSF will use ARRA funds to increase the number of CAREER and IGERT awards. CAREER grants support the research and education activities of junior faculty and IGERT grants support interdisciplinary research and training of graduate students.
-
In addition to R&RA grants, the ARRA also allocated funding for NSF's Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) program and an Academic Research Infrastructure (ARI) program. NSF plans to issue new solicitations for proposals for these programs soon.
-
NSF also will consider proposals declined on or after October 1, 2008. Reversals of declined proposals will be based on both the high quality of the initial reviews, and the lack of available funding at the time of the original decision. NSF program officers will contact institutions when a reversal is being considered by NS
-
NSF is currently working on a solicitation for a Science Masters Program, a new activity created under ARRA.
-
NSF does not intend to provide any supplements to existing grants under ARRA.
