NSF Campus Cyberinfrastructure Program Resources

The National Science Foundation (NSF) annually invests in coordinated campus-level networking and cyberinfrastructure improvements, innovation, integration, and engineering for science applications and distributed research projects through its Campus Cyberinfrastructure (CC*) Program. The following resources have been created and curated by The Quilt to encourage broad participation in the program by supporting Quilt member organizations and their communities of eligible institutions in the proposal writing process.

Join us for this two-part workshop series about the National Science Foundation (NSF) Cyberinfrastructure (CI) funding programs targeted for representatives of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), and other under-resourced minority-serving institutions (MSIs), and their cyberinfrastructure collaborators.

The workshop series is for Campus IT Leaders, IT Staff, Faculty, and Administrators at HBCUs, TCUs, and resource-constrained MSIs (non-R1 institutions), who often wear multiple campus hats. The goals of this workshop series are to provide training opportunities on relevant NSF CI funding programs, approaches to develop campus CI goals and strategies, important first steps and tools for grant proposal development, and identifying potential CI collaborators.

This workshop series is sponsored by the American Indian Higher Education Consortium (AIHEC), the Minority Serving – Cyberinfrastructure Consortium (MS-CC), and The Quilt.  We also wish to recognize and thank Southern Crossroads and OneNet as significant contributors to the upcoming workshops.

Each year, the National Science Foundation invests in coordinated campus-level networking and cyberinfrastructure improvements, innovation, integration, and engineering for science applications and distributed research projects through its Campus Cyberinfrastructure (CC*) Program. The following resources have been created by The Quilt to support our members with the grant writing process.

• NSF CI Funding Programs and Strategies
• Science and Education Drivers and CI Identification
• Collaborator Strategy and Identification
• Experiences from HBCUs, TCUs, and CI Collaborators
• Proposal Development: Submission and Proposal Requirements
• CI Proposal Development Resources
