Broader Impacts

Broader impacts are the potential to benefit society and contribute to the achievement of specific, desired societal outcomes. They may be accomplished through:

• Research
• Activities directly related to research projects
• Activities supported by and complementary to the project

A broader impact statement describes benefits and outcomes — not logistics.

“Cords” of research, education and outreach and access-related activities integrate through your project to deliver broader impacts.

Broader impact resources and support are available on SharePoint.
