About this award
The U.S. Shared Services Center awarded Alaska Pacific University a $4.91 million cooperative agreement (Contract 24-MIRO-0054) to establish and operate the Alaska Pacific University Microplastics Research and Education Center. The award, effective October 1, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2029, supports a civilian research initiative focused on microplastics research and education. This non-set-aside cooperative agreement will be performed in Anchorage, Alaska, leveraging APU's established expertise in environmental research and its commitment to serving Alaska Native and indigenous communities.
Alaska Pacific University, a non-profit institution founded in 1959, is well-positioned to execute this research and education mission given its demonstrated track record in federal contracting and grants management. The university has previously secured substantial federal funding for climate change research, environmental studies, and marine ecosystem research through agencies including the National Science Foundation and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. This five-year cooperative agreement aligns with APU's interdisciplinary research capabilities and its focus on addressing critical environmental challenges through scientific investigation and educational programming, with anticipated emphasis on understanding microplastics impacts on marine and coastal environments relevant to Alaska's communities.
