Understanding the Broader Impact

NSF proposals require a Broader Impact section:

  • How is the research integrated with education, how is it promoting teaching, training and learning?
  • Integration of underrepresented groups
  • Enhancing infrastructure for research/education
  • Broad dissemination to better understand science/technology in the community
  • Benefits for the society/community
