About this opportunity

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), an agency within the U.S. Department of Commerce, is soliciting applications for its Measurement Science and Engineering (MSE) Research Grant Programs. These programs provide financial assistance through grants or cooperative agreements to support research, development, and collaboration aligned with NIST's mission to drive innovation and industrial competitiveness through measurement science and standards. Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education, non-profit organizations, for-profit organizations, state/local governments, tribes, and foreign entities. The key objectives are to cultivate a diverse pool of scientists and engineers, and to collaborate with minority-serving institutions. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis, and NIST expects to complete the review and award processing by August 2023.

The anticipated funding amounts vary by program, generally ranging from $5,000 to $12,000,000 per year, with project periods up to 5 years. The programs are authorized under CFDA numbers 11.609, 11.619, and 11.620, and no cost sharing or matching is required. The place of performance is expected to be at the recipient's facilities, with potential collaboration at NIST laboratories.

Synopsis

NIST's mission is to drive innovation and industrial competitiveness through measurement science and standards by cultivating a culture of belonging that integrates diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility in all ways of working. One component of this mission is NIST's ongoing effort to develop a diverse, world-class pool of scientists and engineers to engage in NIST's measurement science and standards research, and to support the development of a general population that understands and appreciates measurement science and standards. NIST also seeks to collaborate with a wide range of organizations, including but not limited to minority-serving institutions such as Historically Black colleges and universities, as well as community colleges, in support of NIST's mission.


This funding opportunity will result in the award of grants or cooperative agreements.
