About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture, through its Shared Services Center, awarded a $1.47M cooperative agreement (22-MUREPDEAP-0001) to Florida A&M University's Division of Research for a research initiative titled "Effects of Gravity on Creeping Salts and Salt Mixtures: Developing Image-Based and AI-Enhanced Diagnostics for Determining Chemical Compositions." The project, which commenced on March 6, 2023, with a completion date of March 5, 2027, will be performed in Tallahassee, Florida. This award was made without a set-aside designation, reflecting FAMU's competitive positioning in the federal contracting marketplace despite its status as a Historically Black College and University and 1890 Land-Grant Institution.

The research project aligns with FAMU's demonstrated capacity in materials science and advanced research methodologies. As a leading minority-serving institution, FAMU's Division of Research brings substantial experience managing federal research initiatives, including cooperative agreements with NASA valued at approximately $5M for advanced materials research and workforce development. The university's recent federal award portfolio exceeds $45M across multiple agencies including the National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, Department of Defense, and National Institutes of Health, positioning it as a capable research institution for complex, multi-year scientific investigations addressing national priorities in advanced materials development and innovation.
