The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency to promote the progress of science; advance the national health, prosperity and welfare; and to secure national defense. NSF is the major source of federal backing in many fields such as mathematics, computer science and the social sciences. NSF fulfills its mission by issuing limited-term grants--about 10,000 new awards per year, with an average duration of three years--to fund specific research proposals that have been judged the most promising by a rigorous and objective merit-review system. Most of these awards go to individuals or small groups of investigators. Others provide funding for research centers, instruments and facilities that allow scientists, engineers and students to work at the outermost frontiers of knowledge. NSF's goal is to support the people, ideas and tools that together make discovery possible. |
