About this opportunity
The Office of Naval Research is seeking proposals for its Fiscal Year 2024 Department of Navy Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education and Workforce Program. The program aims to establish, build, or maintain naval-relevant STEM educational pathways for U.S. citizens across secondary education, post-secondary education, informal science communities and current naval workforce training. Proposals must increase engagement in naval STEM fields and enhance skills, knowledge and career opportunities. Evaluation criteria include alignment with the DON mission, technical and programmatic merit, diversity and inclusion efforts, and program sustainability. Applicants must submit white papers by April 12, 2024 and full proposals by August 30, 2024.
The program expects to award up to eight grants providing a maximum of $200,000 per year for three years, totaling up to $600,000 per award. The projected period of performance is three years. Work under this program will directly support maintaining and cultivating a diverse, world-class STEM workforce to maintain the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps' technological superiority.
Synopsis
The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is interested in receiving a broad range of proposals for augmenting existing and/or developing innovative solutions that directly maintain, and/or cultivate a diverse, world-class Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) workforce to maintain the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps' technological superiority. The goal of proposed efforts must provide solutions that establish, build, and/or maintain STEM educational pathways of U.S. citizens directly relevant to the needs of Department of Navy's (DON) current and future workforce.
As the capacity of the DON Science and Technology (S & T) workforce is interconnected with the STEM education system, DON recognizes the need to support efforts that can jointly improve STEM student outcomes and align educational and outreach efforts with Naval S & T current and future workforce needs. This announcement explicitly encourages programs that improve the capacity of education systems and communities to create impactful STEM educational experiences for students of all ages and the naval related workforce. Programs must aim to increase engagement in naval relevant STEM, and enhance the corresponding skills, knowledge, and abilities of participants. ONR encourages applicants to utilize current STEM educational research for informing program design and advancing STEM careers and opportunities of naval relevance.
