Education component of NSF awards -- what can be done and where can we make a difference

ORAL

Abstract

The education component of the NSF awards is often neglected or considered a minor component of the research. In this talk I will share my personal view of the importance of this component. In particular I will provide few examples of situation I have encountered in the past few years as NSF career awardees and will discuss what in my opinion are the aspects one should focus on to make a difference.
