17 June | Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 National Science Portal (NSP)
AFOSR
The Basic Research National Science Portals (NSPs) seek to accelerate DoD critical scientific areas and flood the United States with diverse STEM talent by capitalizing on the demonstrated excellence of Historically Black Colleges and Universities/ Minority Serving Institutions/ Tribal Colleges (HBCU/MSI/TCs) and building their research capacity in critical research areas. The topic areas that we seek to support with this FOA are independent from those described in our open Broad Agency Announcement (Research Interests of the Air Force Office of Scientific Research) and do not fall completely within any one research program. In fiscal year 2025, we seek proposals in three topic areas: Quantum Computing, Unique Advantages to Biologically Based Materials for Space and Ferrimagnetic Electronics.
