This contract does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Minnesota is a major land-grant research university that conducts cutting-edge...
- This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC25K7934, was granted to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration. The $143,423 grant is for a five-year period ending on June 12, 2028, and is not set aside for any specific type of business. The contract requires the University of Minnesota to execute a balanced science program based on guidance from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, as well as...
- This is a $541,919 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration, for research on the role of wave cross-scale coupling in particle dynamics in the Earth's magnetosphere and the solar wind. The award has a period of performance through January 31, 2026. The University of Minnesota is a major public research institution that conducts a wide range of...
- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) awarded a $900,245.00 grant for research to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration. The grant, which has no set-aside designation, is intended to effectively enable the NASA-funded science community's use of transformational data sets. As a non-profit organization and 1862 land grant college, the Regents of the University of Minnesota has extensive experience conducting...
- This federal contract award, with an ID of 80NSSC21M0018, was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration, as the prime contractor. The $304,979 cooperative agreement is for a project titled "The Impact of Urban Expansion on Peri-Urban Agriculture, Hydrometeorology, Food Security and Human Health" with a performance period ending on October 13, 2025....
This federal contract award, valued at $244,712.25, was granted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration. The contract is focused on improving computational tools to support future Mars missions, which will require larger landed masses and decreased uncertainties, especially for potential manned missions. Of particular interest is the formation of planet-encircling dust storms on Mars, which could interfere with entry vehicles. The contract aims to better characterize how these dust particles interact with hypersonic airflow during entry. This research is expected to advance the understanding of these complex aerothermodynamic phenomena and help enable more successful future missions to the Red Planet. The contract does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Minnesota is a major land-grant research institution with extensive experience conducting cutting-edge scientific research for federal agencies across various disciplines.
