About this opportunity
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is soliciting applications for its 21st annual People, Prosperity, and the Planet (P3) Program National Student Design Competition. The P3 Program seeks to fund innovative technology and research projects that address environmental challenges in areas like clean air and water, chemical safety, and healthy communities. Eligible applicants are degree-granting institutions of higher education that must assemble interdisciplinary teams of undergraduate and/or graduate students led by a faculty advisor. Applications will be evaluated based on technical and educational merits, budgets, current and pending support disclosures, and human subjects research protocols if applicable. Applications are due no later than February 21, 2024.
Approximately $1.2 million total is available to fund around 16 grant projects, with individual awards not exceeding $75,000 for one- to two-year project periods beginning in 2024. Funded projects will be expected to demonstrate proposed technologies and research at the applicant institutions to prove effectiveness and value in improving environmental and public health outcomes.
Synopsis
EPA supports research for evaluating and predicting impacts from chemical use and disposal and providing states and industries with information, tools, and methods to make better informed and more timely decisions about the thousands of chemicals in the U.S. EPA seeks projects that support research and demonstration of innovative and cost-effective solutions to chemical safety challenges, including reducing chemical risks. Examples of relevant topic areas include, but are not limited to, development of technologies and approaches that aid the collection and management of chemical data/information (including strategies to reduce or replace animal testing) and tools to assess their feasibility; and development of information technology and software tools to mine ever-expanding data sources for information on chemical exposures and toxicities.
The P3 program is emphasizing the use of innovation in projects submitted to this announcement. The program challenges and empowers interdisciplinary student teams to transform their classroom learning into hands-on experience by designing and demonstrating tangible solutions to real-world environmental issues in their communities.
