Project Impact

Resources

1) List of NSDL Awarded Projects

Awarded Projects

This NSDL resource provides a list of NSDL awarded projects. Data includes: NSF award number, Project title, Awardee Organization, State, Principal Investigator, NSDL Track, and Fiscal Year of Award. The NSF Award Number is a hyperlink. Clicking on it will lead you to the NSF fastlane site and other details such as abstract and project run dates can be found.

Core Integration was able to compile this list due to the efforts of Anita Coleman, who researched information, compiled it into relevant formats, and clarified confusing facts.
