About this opportunity
The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) is soliciting proposals for fundamental research projects that offer significant benefits to national defense capabilities. This Federal Grant Opportunity encompasses a wide range of scientific disciplines, including engineering, materials science, information science, physics, chemistry, and biology. AFOSR seeks proposals that advance scientific discovery without an immediate application or transition path, with the goal of preventing technological surprise and creating strategic advantages for the U.S. Air Force and Space Force. Applicant types include universities, non-profits, small businesses, and commercial organizations. Proposals will be accepted on a continuous basis and evaluated according to their potential to further scientific knowledge in areas critical to national defense.
The Federal Grant Opportunity is assigned to the Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program (CFDA 12.800), which typically provides project grants ranging from $50,000 to $2,135,810 with performance periods of 1-5 years. Most awards are issued to U.S. universities, including prominent institutions across the country. The primary funding agency is the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory, and the assistance types include Cooperative Agreements, Grants, and Procurement Contracts.
