About this opportunity
This funding opportunity from the Department of the Army Materiel Command seeks whitepapers and proposals from historically black colleges and universities and minority-serving institutions for basic research partnerships with the Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Army Research Laboratory programs. Eligible applicants are invited to submit whitepapers addressing one of seven research topic areas including synthetic biology, energetic materials, autonomy, artificial intelligence, and robotics by January 19, 2024. Evaluation will consider the applicant's ability to perform the research and the relevance to DEVCOM ARL priorities, with successful applicants invited to submit full proposals by March 29, 2024.
Awards of up to $2.02 million over five years will be provided to support research partnerships, with individual annual funding levels of $350,000, $350,000, $440,000, $530,000, and $350,000 respectively for the first through fifth years.

Synopsis
U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Army Research Laboratory (ARL) Historically Black College and University (HBCU)/Minority-Serving Institution (MI) Research Partnership.
Under the DEVCOM ARL HBCU/MI Research Partnership, funding will be provided for HBCU/MIs to support basic research focused on partnerships with major DEVCOM ARL research programs. The focus of this effort is to advance innovative basic research in areas of strategic importance to the Army by bringing competitively selected HBCU/MI research teams into existing Army Futures Command (AFC) Collaborative Research Alliances (CRAs), Collaborative Technology Alliances (CTAs), and research centers. The Army CRAs, CTAs, and centers work with Army, industry, and other academic partners to conduct and transition research to technology demonstration.
This is a call for HBCUs/MIs to submit whitepapers expressing their interest in participating in new research partnerships with opportunities and to recruit, educate, and train outstanding students and post-doctoral researchers through participation in collaborative research in science and technology areas relevant to the Army. This opportunity will establish three to five new HBCU/MI research partnerships, each selected to enhance existing research under an individual Army CRA, CTA, and/or center.
Whitepapers are to be submitted addressing one of the seven ARL research program opportunities described in Section II.B. The format and content of the Whitepapers, and for invited proposals, as well as submission information, are described below and in the following sections. Whitepapers may be submitted to more than one of the seven ARL Programs; however, each Program requires a separate submission. Further, while there is no limit on the number of Whitepapers submitted by each institution, each named Principal Investigator from an institution can submit only one Whitepaper to each of the seven ARL Programs.
