Decision, Risk and Management Sciences: The Decision, Risk and Management Sciences program supports scientific research directed at increasing the understanding and effectiveness of decision making by individuals, groups, organizations, and society. Disciplinary and interdisciplinary research, doctoral dissertation research improvement grants (ddrigs), and workshops are funded in the areas of judgment and decision making; decision analysis and decision aids; risk analysis, perception, and communication; societal and public policy decision making; management science and organizational design. The program also supports small grants that are time-critical (Rapid Response Research - RAPID) and small grants that are high-risk and of a potentially transformative nature (EArly-Concept Grants for Exploratory Research - EAGER). For detailed information concerning these two types of grants, please review Chapter II.D of the <a href="http://nsf.gov/pubsys/ods/getpub.cfm?gpg">NSF Grant Proposal Guide</a>.
Funded research must be grounded in theory and generalizable. Purely algorithmic management science proposals should be submitted to the <a href="http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=13341">Operations Research Program</a> rather than to DRMS.
General Guidanceconcerning the DRMSDoctoral Dissertation Research Improvement Grants (DDRIGs) funding opportunity includes the following:
<ul>
<li>To assure that the proposal is appropriate for DRMS, the advisor of the doctoral student is strongly encouraged to contact one of the DRMS Program Directors by e-mail prior to the preparation of the DDRIG proposal.</li>
<li>DRMS DDRIG awards have a recommended maximum duration of 12 months.</li>
<li>The proposal title should start with “Doctoral Dissertation Research in DRMS:”.</li>
<li>On the FastLane Cover Sheet, the advisor should be listed as the Principal Investigator (PI) and the doctoral dissertation student as the Co-PI.</li>
<li>DDRIG awards are designed to cover expenses such as travel to the research site, special equipment, and participation fees.</li>
<li>DRMS does not provide general stipends or cost-of-living support for DDRIG awards.</li>
<li>Your DDRIG proposal's project desciption should be essentially a research design(statement of the research problem, literature review, hypotheses, research site, data to be collected, methods of analysis, and schedule).</li>
<li>The review process for DDRIG proposals may involve only mail reviews, or itmay include both mail reviews and assessment by the DRMS advisory panel.</li>
<li>
Outstanding DDRIG proposals specify how the knowledge to be created advances our theoretical understanding of the subject.
</li>
</ul>
