About this opportunity

The National Science Foundation is soliciting applications for the Probability Program, which supports research on the theory and applications of probability, with an application due date of September 15, 2026. Applicants are unrestricted in type.

The program funds research across discrete probability, stochastic processes, limit theory, interacting particle systems, stochastic differential and partial differential equations, and Markov processes. Research in probability involving applications to other areas of science and engineering receives particular encouragement. The program also supports conferences, workshops, summer and winter schools, and similar activities; conference and workshop proposals must be submitted eight months before the requested start date and require careful review of the separate solicitation "Conferences and Workshops in the Mathematical Sciences."

This opportunity operates under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), which distributes funding across multiple NSF divisions including Mathematical Sciences. Recent awards under the broader program typically range from $45,000 for conference support to $1.26 million for large training groups, with typical research project awards between $200,000 and $500,000.

Applicants must submit through Grants.gov using the NSF Grants.gov Application Guide (NSF 24-006). Project narratives are limited to 15 pages, budget justifications to five pages, and data management plans to two pages. All attachments must be in PDF format with embedded fonts. Senior and key personnel must maintain valid NSF IDs, and organizations must maintain current SAM registration and valid Unique Entity Identifiers.

Synopsis

The Probability Program supports research on the theory and applications of probability. Subfields include discrete probability, stochastic processes, limit theory, interacting particle systems, stochastic differential and partial differential equations, and Markov processes. Research in probability which involves applications to other areas of science and engineering is especially encouraged. Conferences Principal Investigators should carefully read the program solicitation "Conferences and Workshops in the Mathematical Sciences" (link below) to obtain important information regarding the substance of proposals for conferences, workshops, summer/winter schools, and similar activities. Conference and workshop proposals should be submitted eight months before the requested start date.
