About the company
University Of New Orleans, a public research university and child entity of the Louisiana State University system, acts as a federal grant recipient conducting basic research, workforce development, and applied research across life sciences, engineering, environmental remediation, and transportation domains. The institution is a U.S. government entity with no federal contract prime awards but holds 326 prime federal grants (89% of recent awards) spanning 365 total awards valued at $60.4 million in combined potential value.
UNO's research footprint centers on NSF-funded work in environmental sciences, physics, and engineering. The National Science Foundation dominates the customer base with 71 awards, followed by the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education with 32 awards and the Department of the Navy with combined 49 awards across contracting offices. Representative prime grant work includes a $372,500 award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (CFDA 93.859) to investigate lipid metabolism in germline-soma interactions using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model organism, running through May 31, 2031; a $197,022 NSF Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation award (CFDA 47.041) to develop autonomous surface vehicles for water quality monitoring with integrated learning and decision-making capabilities, completing July 31, 2028; and a $1,998,718 NSF Division of Undergraduate Education S-STEM award (CFDA 47.076) to provide scholarships and support services for 62 low-income undergraduate STEM students in Computer Science and Biological Sciences, running through September 30, 2031. Additional capability work spans photochemistry of crude oil spills and petroleum-bound metal release (two NSF Division of Chemistry CAREER awards totaling over $400 thousand), quantum entanglement and multipartite nonlocality research, biodiversity conservation using explainable AI, and maritime transportation research and education through the MarTREC center partnership with the University of Arkansas.
Navy awards concentrate dollar value despite lower award count. The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command accounts for 22 awards valued at $38.7 million combined potential value, anchored on an Indefinite Delivery Contract (N6925008D0302) with 19 task orders carrying $11.7 million combined potential value. The Navy's Office of Naval Research has funded STEM outreach programs and basic research on interplanetary shocks. UNO has no active BPAs, GWACs, or other multi-agency vehicles in its prime portfolio; the Navy IDC represents the highest-value parent vehicle.
Activity has grown unevenly — 15 awards in 2022, 7 in 2023, 17 in 2024, 22 in 2025, and 7 in the partial 2026 year. Thirteen awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete exposure for the institution. Combined dollars obligated ($226.9 million) exceed combined potential value by 276 percent, indicating significant prior-year invoiced work and multi-year grant continuations.
UNO operates as a sub-recipient on 39 awards (11% of total), primarily grant work for the Louisiana Department of Health under public health and epidemiology programs, Louisiana State University FUEL innovation and research consortia, the Louisiana Solar Corps workforce training program, and the Maritime Transportation Research and Education Center. The institution received a $4.8 million Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration award (September 8, 2022) to lead the H2TheFuture Coalition supporting clean energy and hydrogen sector development in New Orleans, with the Louisiana Board of Regents as the parent organization. Graduate student training and undergraduate research experiences are embedded in nearly all research awards, reflecting UNO's dual research-and-education mission.
