BPC supplements are intended to extend the reach of Broadening Participation in Computing plans. As part of the CISE BPC Initiative, broadening participation activities are an accepted and, in some cases, an expected part of the CISE research award portfolio. Certain awards for many CISE research programs require a meaningful BPC plan. Awards with BPC plans from the following programs are eligible to request BPC Supplements:
Budgets for Supplemental funding requests must be less than 20% of the original award amount; and not exceed $200,000 in total costs. Eligible Principal Investigators are strongly encouraged to contact both their cognizant NSF Program Director(s) and the BPC team at cise-bpc@nsf.gov to discuss their supplemental funding requests prior to submitting to NSF.
