About this opportunity
The Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science is seeking applications for its Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) Implementation Grants. The grants are intended to improve research capabilities in eligible EPSCoR jurisdictions by supporting groups of scientists and engineers, including students and post-doctoral fellows, working on common scientific themes. Key requirements include demonstrating institutional commitment, incorporating student participation in research, and aligning the work with DOE program priorities across areas such as Basic Energy Sciences, Nuclear Physics, and Energy Efficiency. Pre-applications are due October 30, 2024, with full applications due on January 29, 2025.
The program anticipates awarding grants ranging from $1-1.5 million per year for new awards and $1.5-2.5 million per year for renewal awards, for a total estimated funding of $35 million in FY2025. All work must be performed in one of the 28 specified EPSCoR jurisdictions or at DOE National Laboratories. Eligible applicants are limited to institutions located within the eligible EPSCoR jurisdictions, which include states like Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas and territories like Guam and Puerto Rico.
Synopsis
The DOE Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DOE EPSCoR) announces its interest in receiving new and renewal applications from applicants within eligible jurisdictions for Implementation Grants. Grants awarded under this program are intended to improve research capability through the support of a group of scientists and engineers, including undergraduate students, graduate students and post-doctoral fellows, working on a common scientific theme in one or more EPSCoR jurisdictions. These awards are not appropriate mechanisms to provide support for individual faculty science and technology research projects. While the academic, non-profit and industrial research communities are welcome to lead or to participate in applications, a strong component of student education in research is required for all applicants.
