About Wentworth Institute Of Technology, Inc.
Wentworth Institute of Technology, a nonprofit educational institution based in Boston, Massachusetts, operates as a federal research grant recipient conducting fundamental and applied physics research, with 97% of recent awards held as prime grants and the remaining 3% as sub-grants from other institutions. The institution does not hold federal contracts or participate in contract vehicles; its federal footprint is exclusively grant-funded research and workforce development across the National Science Foundation and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Wentworth's active research portfolio centers on solar physics, space weather, and gravitational-wave astrophysics. Recent representative work includes a $196,670 NSF Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) LEAPS-MPS project grant awarded in September 2025, extending through August 2027, that develops detection methodologies for cosmic strings through gravitational-wave analysis using NANOGrav and LISA data; a $2.83 million NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) National Research Traineeship Institutional Partnership Pilot grant awarded September 2025 and running through August 2030 to co-develop with Boston University a Master of Science degree program in bioengineering with industry internships and paid traineeships targeting 100 students over five years; a $385,959 NSF Geosciences (CFDA 47.050) collaborative research grant awarded May 2025 analyzing total solar eclipse data to study coronal temperature, density, and magnetic field structure for space-weather prediction; and an NSF Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences collaborative research grant awarded April 2026 extending through March 2029 leveraging three total solar eclipses (2026, 2027, 2028) to investigate thermodynamics of coronal plasmas and space-weather events with student participation in observations and data analysis.
Wentworth's customer concentration is dominated by Department of the Air Force awards (119 of 133 awards tracked by customer, 91% coverage), followed by the Department of the Navy (5 awards), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (3 awards), the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education (3 awards), and the Department of the Army (3 awards). The NSF represents the primary active grantor across recent fiscal years. Research categories are concentrated in general science and technology R&D services (62 awards, applied research emphasis; 35 awards, applied research; 9 awards, advanced development), with 4 awards in space R&D.
Four indefinite-delivery Air Force contracts anchor historical task orders: F1962883C0014 (45 task orders), F1962879C0103 (17 task orders), F1962888C0031 (8 task orders), and F1962878C0017 (1 task order). Activity has been episodic—two awards in 2020 and 2023, one in 2024, five in 2025, and one in 2026—with only two awards facing ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months and therefore minimal recompete exposure in that window. In its limited subgrant role, Wentworth serves as a sub-recipient under MIT (microplastic detection in coastal wetland plants, September 2025) and the University of Cincinnati (amended award, February 2024), and receives pass-through FEMA funds for emergency protective measures and pandemic response (December 2023, August 2023).
