w********d 发帖数: 270 | 1 In the CAREER proposal, should I use "we" or "I"? such as... "we proposed to
do....", or "I propose to do....". Which way is better and more persuasive?
Anybody wants to share some comments on it? thanks. | w******t 发帖数: 1422 | 2 this proposal aims to do...
or we plan to do | g***t 发帖数: 91 | 3 Even though it's a single PI proposal, it doesn't mean you are gonna work on
the project alone if it's funded, right? You will have graduate students,
postdoc or other senior personnel, working together on the project. So there
is nothing wrong with using "we" in such a proposal, in my humble opinion.

persuasive?

But I did see some funded CAREER proposals where "I" is used. It seems using
"we" is still the majority. :)

| a*******8 发帖数: 32 | 5 You should use "I" in a CAREER proposal. That's what I learned from several
people, including someone who worked in NSF before. However, in the one-page
summary, you should use "the PI" instead of "I". | l******e 发帖数: 153 | 6 I don't think it matters. I saw both "I" and "we" used in one funded CAREER
from a native speaker PI. | w********d 发帖数: 270 | 7 Thanks!
