About the company
Fielding Graduate University, operating as Fielding Graduate, is a Santa Barbara–based private non-profit educational institution that serves federal agencies as a prime recipient of research grants and, more recently, as a direct tuition-and-fees provider through Navy delivery orders. The university operates entirely as a prime awardee (100% of recent awards) with no subcontract footprint and no set-aside designations across its federal portfolio.
Fielding Graduate's federal capability set divides between two distinct lines of work. The first centers on research, leadership development, and STEM broadening-participation initiatives targeted at underrepresented groups in science and engineering, particularly at historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). Representative grant work includes a National Science Foundation project grant (October 1, 2023, ultimate completion May 2, 2025) supporting the Center for the Advancement of STEM Leadership (CASL), a broadening-participation research center providing rigorous study and dissemination of leadership theories and pedagogies for HBCU leaders advancing African American undergraduate STEM participation; and a cooperative agreement with the Office of Grants Management (October 1, 2022, ultimate completion September 30, 2025) for National Service and Civic Engagement Research. The second line consists of direct educational services: Navy delivery orders for graduate-level tuition and fees covering summer 2025 ($10,485), fall 2025 ($10,690), and spring 2026 ($10,210) coursework at the university's Santa Barbara campus, delivered under a Basic Ordering Agreement with the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery established July 15, 2025, through July 14, 2035.
Fielding Graduate's customer base is moderately concentrated among research and workforce-development agencies. The National Science Foundation leads by award count (7 awards), followed by the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education (3 awards) and the Department of the Navy (3 awards, $31 thousand combined potential value). The top five customers account for 80% of recent awards. The source carries no specific dollar figures for NSF or Education awards, reflecting the grants' historical award dates (pre-2025) and likely indicating obligated spend substantially exceeding the Navy tuition awards' face value. The university holds a single-award Basic Ordering Agreement with the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery that has generated three Navy task orders valued at $31 thousand combined and carries a ten-year term through July 2035 with no specified ceiling.
Recent activity shows two small tuition delivery orders in 2025 and one in early 2026 against the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery BOA, alongside a longer-tail grant portfolio anchored to NSF and Department of Education research funding that completed or completed in the 2023–2025 window. The combined obligated dollars across all awards ($9.6 million) substantially exceed the combined potential value ($52 thousand) on file, a ratio characteristic of older grants now in payment phase rather than new procurements.
