Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI) are an important component of the nation’s higher education ecosystem and play a critical role in realizing the National Science Board Vision Report for a more diverse and capable science and engineering workforce. Aligned with this...
Synopsis of Program: In response to the CHIPS Act of 2022 (Pub.L. 117-167), NSF is establishing the National STEM Teacher Corps Pilot Program. The purpose of this program is to elevate the profession of STEM teaching by establishing a National...
Invites planning proposals for large-scale CISE research projects that promote sustainable capacity-building and competitiveness across EPSCoR jurisdictions, leading to success in CISE large-scale project competitions.
Encourages the submission of proposals from EPSCoR interjurisdictional teams who have historically conducted foundational research to extend their work by pursuing related, use-inspired research questions in any STEM area that NSF supports.
Founded in 1984, the Engineering Research Centers (ERC) program brings technology-based industry and universities together in an effort to strengthen the competitive position of American industry in the global marketplace. These partnerships are expected to establish cross-disciplinary centers focused on...
In alignment with the CREST Program goals, through this solicitation, the CREST Program seeks to expand its geographic diversity and reach by explicitly calling for proposals led by and for efforts in Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) jurisdictions...
The biodiversity found in nature is essential for healthy ecosystems and human well-being. However, the disruption and decline of Earth’s biodiversity is currently occurring at an unprecedented rate. The resulting shifts in biodiversity dynamics — including changes in the scope...
Supports interjurisdictional teams of EPSCoR investigators to perform research in topics that align with NSF priorities, with the goals of driving discovery and building sustainable STEM capacity.
The NSF CISE Directorate supports research and education projects that develop new knowledge in all aspects of computing, communications, and information science and engineering through core programs. The core programs for the participating CISE divisions include: Division of Computing and...
Correctness for Scientific Computing Systems (CS 2) is a joint program of the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Department of Energy (DOE). The program addresses challenges that are both core to DOE’s mission and essential to NSF’s mission of...
Encourages planning proposals for a CREST center focused on CISE research at minority-serving institutions to help enhance research capabilities and facilitate the preparation of future competitive CREST proposals.
Encourages research proposals aimed at mathematical modeling of the transmission of respiratory pathogens among human hosts with a focus on policy options for evolving public health challenges.
Encourages supplemental funding requests to provide graduate student internship and training opportunities focused on hydrogen and fuel cell technologies to foster the growth of a competitive and diverse research workforce.
Supports efforts to improve graduate student research training and professional development in mathematical sciences through structured groups pursuing collaborative research at institutions of higher education.
Encourages proposals on post-transcriptional RNA and post-translational protein modifications and how these modifications influence the properties, interactions, and/or regulation of these macromolecules and their role in cellular and organismal phenotype.
Supports research collaborations between mathematicians, statisticians, computer scientists, engineers and social behavior scientists to establish innovative and principled design and analysis approaches for AI technology.
Invites proposals for Early-Concept Grants for Exploratory Research (EAGER) and conference/workshop proposals that leverage cyberinfrastructure to advance research data management and public access.
Supports the establishment of a coordinating office that will work with principal investigators to manage the development of a deep-sea drilling program and provide drilling services needed by the ocean science community.
Invites supplemental funding requests from active NSF recipients to provide graduate students with research internships and professional development opportunities in biomedical engineering.
Supports cross-disciplinary, collaborative research focused on the discovery and ultimate manufacturing of new sustainable polymers or sustainable pathways to existing polymers using state-of-the-art data science.
Encourages submission of proposals for projects that use/reuse long-term environmental data to advance understanding of ecological and evolutionary questions.
Supports the formation of Industry-University Cooperative Research Centers that focus on pre-competitive, use-inspired research and thought leadership on terrorism and catastrophic cyber insurance modeling to strengthen the U.S. financial system and economy.
Supports graduate student research and education projects with high industry relevance through partnerships between non-R1 institutions, institutions with existing or completed NRT projects, and industry partners.
