We expect thatother kinds of social scientists would provide similar benefits to research projects with othergoals, as has been suggested by others [1, 20].When the STEM practitioners that dominated the initial group integrated social scientists intoRISE, we blithely assumed that the social scientists would be assimilated into the existing STEMresearch culture.

Although this metric is currently unable to be measured, future research may be suggested to provide value for customer service. However, it must be noted that this is a subjective metric with a projected impact.

If you take the initiative, settingup a mock panel is a way to enhance the visibility of your research, as well as improveyour chances of having it funded.Finally, set your horizon far beyond your first grant. Think of what you want to be doingten years from now, and work backwards from that. That will help open your eyes towhat you can achieve, and diminish the chances that you will miss out on a useful projector collaboration because your mind was focused too narrowly on your immediate goals.Note to reviewers: If you, or anyone you know, would like to contribute ideas to improve the final versionof this paper, please fill out the survey (anonymously, if you wish) at http://tinyurl.com/res

The time required to present the additional knowledge required, to allow students to experimentwith the new knowledge so it is internalized, and finally consider how the knowledge can be utilized inthe completion of the project, must be considered.
