About this opportunity

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is soliciting research and development grant proposals for its FY2025 University Nuclear Leadership Program (UNLP). The grant opportunity (Solicitation #31310025K0001) seeks projects in nuclear science, engineering, technology, and related disciplines, with a focus on areas such as wireless communications, digital instrumentation, cybersecurity, risk assessment, human factors, fire hazards, natural hazards, fuel performance, artificial intelligence, and environmental justice. Eligible applicants include U.S. public and private institutions of higher education, with a particular emphasis on encouraging participation from minority-serving institutions (MSIs). Applications will be evaluated on criteria including significance, approach, innovation, principal investigator qualifications, and MSI partnerships. The deadline for submission is February 14, 2025.

The NRC anticipates awarding approximately $9-10 million across multiple grants, with individual awards up to $500,000 for a 3-year period. The program falls under the NRC's Scholarship and Fellowship Program (CFDA 77.008), which provides funding for undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, and faculty development initiatives in nuclear-related fields. All student and faculty participants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
