NSF TEMPLATES
There is no single template for the project description. However, the templates below will assist you in preparing your biosketch, collaborators list, and data management plan according to NSF guidelines. For each, use at least 11-point Times New Roman font and maintain 1 inch margins. Remember to number your pages, even if the document is only 1 page, unless instructed otherwise.
NSF Biosketch: Proposers must create biosketches using either ScienCV or the PDF template available here.
NSF Collaborators https://www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/coa.jsp
NSF uses the collaborators information when selecting reviewers. Pay attention to the time frames listed - some conflicts last a lifetime, whereas others do not.
NSF Data Management NSF Data Management Plan.doc
NSF requries a data management plan for each proposal. You can find additional information on writing a DMP under Resources, which will direct you to the Libraries' page. There are also RASCAL trainings designed to help you with your data managment needs. This document is meant to be a guide, but it is not a template, so do not respond to any of the questions with "N/A."

NSF Current and Pending List
Proposers must use either ScienCV or the fillable PDF form available here to create their list of current and pending support. Remember that the proposal being submitted must also be included as pending.
