- Description
- The Department of Defense (DoD) announces the fiscal year 2007 Department of Defense Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DEPSCoR). The program is executed under the policy guidance of the Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of De fense for Laboratories and Basic Sciences [ODUSD (LABS)] and administered through the Army Research Office (ARO), Office of Naval Research (ONR), and Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) with the cooperation of the Experimental Program to Stimul ate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) State Committees. The DoD plans to award fiscal year 2007 DEPSCoR appropriations through this announcement. ARO, ONR, and AFOSR (henceforth referred to as agencies) will award research grants based on this announcement. It is anticipated that each agency will receive an equal portion of the FY07 funds available to support proposals accepted under this BAA. The program statute for DEPSCoR (section 257 of Public Law 103-337, as amended) states that DEPSCoR's objectives are to: (1) enhance the capabilities of institutions of higher education (universities) in eligible States to develop, plan, and execute scienc e and engineering research that is competitive under the peer review systems used for awarding Federal research assistance; and (2) increase the probability of long term growth in the competitively awarded financial assistance that universities in eligible States receive from the Federal Government for science and engineering research. Consistent with these long term objectives of building research infrastructure, the DoD intends to competitively make, and fund from fiscal year 2007 appropriations, multiye ar awards for research and for associated graduate education of scientists and engineers in areas important to national defense. Announcement closes on 31 October 2006. Please follow the link below to view the BAA announcement.
