research” is systematic study directed toward greater knowledge or
understanding of the fundamental aspects of
phenomena and of observable facts without specific applications toward processes
or products in mind. It includes all scientific study and experimentation
directed toward increasing fundamental knowledge and understanding in those
fields of the physical, engineering, environmental, life sciences, and
information sciences related to long-term national security needs.
Principal Investigators
(PIs) are encouraged to consider innovative approaches for their research
projects with a view toward enhancing the ability of their institution to
develop stronger science and engineering programs that will enable the
institution to participate more competitively in a variety of defense research
programs, attract and retain good students by exposing them to state-of-the-art
research, and encourage them to pursue careers in STEM disciplines. Funding period: performance
period of 48 months
Anticipated awards: Each
grant will be fully funded for a in an amount up to $1 million (total of direct
