About this opportunity
The Department of Defense (DoD) is offering the FY24 Defense Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DEPSCoR) - Capacity Building (CB) grant opportunity. The program is sponsored by the DoD Basic Research Office, managed by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), and administered through the Office of Naval Research (ONR). The key objectives are to increase the number of university researchers in eligible states/territories capable of performing DoD-relevant science and engineering research, enhance the capabilities of eligible institutions of higher education (IHEs) to develop competitive DoD-related research, and increase the probability of long-term growth in competitively awarded federal funding for research at IHEs in eligible states/territories. Proposals must address technical basic research areas outlined in the Army, Navy, and Air Force broad agency announcements, and the full proposal submission deadline is November 12, 2024.
The Basic Research Office anticipates awarding between 1-4 grants up to $1.5 million each (total cost), with each award funded up to $750,000 per year for 2 years. This program is funded under the Basic Scientific Research (CFDA 12.431) federal grant program and is open to IHEs in 38 eligible states and territories.

Update #3 · Latest ·
The Department of Defense (DoD) announces the fiscal year 2024 (FY24) Defense Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DEPSCoR) - Capacity Building opportunity. The program is sponsored and managed by the Basic Research Office, Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD [R & E]), awarded by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), and administered through the Office of Naval Research (ONR). The DoD plans to award FY24 DEPSCoR appropriations through this announcement.
DEPSCoR's objectives are to:
(1) increase the number of university researchers in eligible States/Territories capable of performing science and engineering (S & E) research responsive to the needs of the DoD.
(2) enhance the capabilities of institutions of higher education (IHEs) in eligible States/Territories (listed below) to develop, plan, and execute S & E research that is relevant to the mission of the DoD, and competitive under the peer-review systems used for awarding Federal research assistance; and
(3) increase the probability of long-term growth in the competitively awarded financial assistance that IHEs in eligible States/Territories receive from the Federal Government for S & E research.
The Basic Research Office anticipates up to $6 million in total funding will be made available for this program to fully fund and award between one to four grants up to $1.5 million (total cost) each. Each grant award will be funded up to $750,000 (total cost) per year for two (2) years.
The award is subject to funding availability. The Basic Research Office reserves the right to select and fund for award all, some, part, or none of the proposals received. There is no guarantee of an award.
