About Ursinus College
Ursinus College, doing business as Berman Museum Of Art, is a private nonprofit educational institution based in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, that operates as a federal grant recipient (93% of recent awards as prime recipient) focused on undergraduate research and STEM education across life sciences, physical sciences, and museum collections digitization. The institution does not hold federal contracts and competes in full-and-open research grant programs rather than set-aside categories.
Ursinus functions as a research hub for NSF-funded undergraduate research experiences, with the National Science Foundation dominating its federal footprint. NSF accounts for 18 awards across multiple divisions (Physics, 6 awards; Undergraduate Education, 4 awards; Chemistry, 2 awards), representing 57% of all recent awards. The institution's concrete research capability spans experimental nuclear physics, marine biology, cardiometabolic exercise physiology, biomaterial design for nucleic acid therapeutics, and lunar crater impact analysis. Representative prime grants include a $501,393 NSF Biological Sciences award (CFDA 47.074) to characterize intertidal marine invertebrate physiology using the American slipper snail as a model organism (August 2025–July 2028); a $230,784 NSF Division of Materials Research grant (CFDA 47.049) evaluating ionizable amphiphilic Janus dendrimers as gene-therapy delivery agents (August 2025–July 2028); a $1,999,659 NSF Division of Undergraduate Education project grant (CFDA 47.076) providing need-based STEM scholarships to 24 low-income undergraduates in biology, biochemistry, chemistry, computer science, and physics with integrated student success services (March 2026–February 2032); and a $349,728 National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute project grant investigating metabolic adaptations to acute and chronic exercise in obese hearts (September 2025–August 2028). Beyond research, Ursinus operates the Berman Museum of Art, which received a $168,941 NASA grant (May 2024–May 2026) developing a transparent, systematic undergraduate-accessible method for estimating impact conditions of Copernican-aged lunar craters, and an Institute of Museum and Library Services grant to digitize the Francoise Gilot art collection and archives (September 2023–August 2024).
The institution serves 25 distinct federal agencies, but funding concentration remains tight: the top five customers (NSF divisions and agencies) represent 57% of award count. Activity has grown modestly from two awards in 2022 to five in 2025, with one award placed in the first quarter of 2026. Three prime grants face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete activity. In its subrecipient role, Ursinus contributes biostatistics and research support to Creighton University (ototoxicity screening in COVID-19 drug compounds, September 2025), Oregon State University (gray whale baleen physiological response modeling, September 2025), and Bryn Mawr College (research collaboration, October 2024).
