About this opportunity

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is seeking applicants for the Industry-University Cooperative Research Centers (IUCRC) program, which develops long-term partnerships among industry, academe, and government. The Centers conduct research of interest to both industry members and the Center faculty, contributing to the nation's research infrastructure and enhancing the intellectual capacity of the engineering and science workforce. Key objectives include advancing scientific understanding, promoting global collaboration, and addressing national priorities in science, technology, and social understanding. Evaluation criteria will assess the research quality, broader impacts, and potential for industry engagement and commercialization. The deadline for proposal submission is TBD.

The federal grant awards under this program typically range from $30,000 to $500,000, with project periods spanning 1-5 years. The research is primarily conducted at academic and research institutions across the United States, with opportunities for international collaboration to advance the program's global research goals.

Synopsis

The Industry-University Cooperative Research Centers (IUCRC) program develops long-term partnerships among industry, academe, and government. The Centers are catalyzed by an investment from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and are primarily supported by industry Center members, with NSF taking a supporting role in the development and evolution of the Center. Each Center is established to conduct research that is of interest to both the industry members and the Center faculty. An IUCRC contributes to the nation's research infrastructure base and enhances the intellectual capacity of the engineering and science workforce through the integration of research and education. As appropriate, an IUCRC uses international collaborations to advance these goals within the global context.
