The National Science Foundation (NSF) announces a nationwide search to fill multiple program director positions for research enterprise capacity building in the Growing Research Access for Nationally Transformative Equity and Diversity (GRANTED) initiative within the Office of Integrative Activities (OIA).

The GRANTED initiative is designed to improve the nation’s research support and service capacity at emerging and underserved research institutions by addressing systemic barriers in support of research and training. OIA works across disciplinary boundaries to lead and coordinate strategic programs and opportunities that: advance research excellence and innovation; develop human and infrastructure capacity critical to the U.S. science and engineering enterprise; and promote engagement of scientists and engineers at all career stages and the personnel who support them.

NSF Program Directors have the primary responsibility for carrying out the Agency’s overall mission to support innovative activities in fundamental research and education that contribute to the nation’s technological strength, security, and welfare. This responsibility includes ensuring that proposed activities receive expert, fair merit review.  

Formal consideration of interested applications will continue until these positions are filled. Applications will be considered as early as August 2023.

Please see the program director position announcement on the NSF website for more information about the positions.
