EEC Submission Deadlines:

FOR SUBMISSIONS TO THE NP-EEC:

Ahead of the submission deadline, Spokespersons must request an experiment number from the Physical Sciences Division office by a specified date, typically 1-2 weeks before proposals are due. Requests received after that time will not be processed.

The deadline to request an experiment number for the upcoming NP-EEC is Wednesday, December 6th, 2023 at 16:00 PST.

The deadline to submit a new or continuing proposal for the upcoming NP-EEC is Friday, December 15th, 2023 at 23:59 PST.

FOR SUBMISSIONS TO THE MMS-EEC: 

Ahead of the submission deadline, Spokespersons must request an experiment number from the Physical Sciences Division office by a specified date, typically 1-2 weeks before proposals are due. Requests received after that time will not be processed.

The deadline to request an experiment number for the upcoming MMS-EEC is Friday, December 1st, 2023 at 16:30 PST.

The deadline to submit a new or continuing proposal for the upcoming MMS-EEC is Wednesday, December 6th at 23:59 PST.

FOR SUBMISSIONS TO THE PP-EEC: 

The deadline for PP-EEC submissions is TBD in 2024.

FOR SUBMISSIONS TO THE LSPEC: 

The deadline for LSPEC submissions is April 30th, 2024.
