About this opportunity
The National Science Foundation is soliciting applications for the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) Workshop Opportunities program, which funds workshops addressing multi-jurisdictional efforts on themes of regional or national importance; the source does not specify an application deadline.
Applicants must be institutions or organizations located within EPSCoR-eligible jurisdictions (states, territories, and commonwealths). Eligible applicant types include institutions of higher education (both PhD-granting and non-PhD-granting) accredited in and with a campus in the United States, its territories, or possessions; non-profit, non-degree-granting domestic U.S. organizations including independent museums, science centers, observatories, research laboratories, and professional societies directly associated with the Nation's research or educational activities, provided they have independent permanent administrative organization and 501(c)(3) tax status; and federally recognized American Indian or Alaska Native tribes, bands, nations, pueblos, villages, or communities. Proposals may be submitted only by institutions or organizations within EPSCoR-eligible jurisdictions, acting on behalf of faculty members or employees.
Workshops must focus on innovative approaches to address multi-jurisdictional efforts with relevance to NSF and EPSCoR goals and mission. The program seeks to promote sustainable improvements in research infrastructure, R&D capacity, and R&D competitiveness within eligible jurisdictions through partnerships among academic institutions, government, industry, and non-profit sectors.
The opportunity is assigned to multiple NSF Assistance Listings reflecting broad disciplinary scope: Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (47.075); Geosciences (47.050); Biological Sciences (47.074); Office of International Science and Engineering (47.079); Integrative Activities (47.083); Computer and Information Science and Engineering (47.070); Engineering (47.041); Mathematical and Physical Sciences (47.049); STEM Education (47.076); and NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (47.084).
Synopsis
The Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) is designed to fulfill the mandate of the National Science Foundation (NSF) to promote scientific progress nationwide. NSF EPSCoR facilitates the establishment of partnerships among academic institutions, government, industry, and non-profit sectors that are designed to promote sustainable improvements in an EPSCoR-eligible jurisdiction's research infrastructure, Research and Development (R & D) capacity, and R & D competitiveness. Eligibility to participate in NSF EPSCoR funding opportunities, including the EPSCoR Workshop Opportunities program, is described on the EPSCoR website (see criteria for eligibility link). EPSCoR welcomes proposals for workshops only from institutions within EPSCoR-eligible jurisdictions (i.e. states, territories, commonwealths). These workshops must focus on innovative ways to address multi-jurisdictional efforts on themes of regional or national importance with relevance to the goals and mission of NSF and EPSCoR.
