Opportunity Information: Apply for FOA AFRL AFOSR 2022 0007
The FY22 Defense Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DEPSCoR) Capacity Building (CB) opportunity is a Department of Defense grant program designed to strengthen university research capacity in states and territories that are eligible under DEPSCoR. The program is sponsored and overseen by the DoD Basic Research Office within the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, with awards issued by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) and administrative support provided through the Office of Naval Research (ONR). In practical terms, this funding is meant to help institutions build the people, programs, and research infrastructure needed to compete more successfully for DoD-related science and engineering research support over the long run.
The core purpose of the Capacity Building track is not just to fund a single research project, but to improve an institution's ability to conceive, plan, and execute high-quality science and engineering research that aligns with DoD mission needs and national security priorities. The opportunity emphasizes three connected goals: increasing the number of researchers in eligible locations who can perform DoD-relevant science and engineering research, improving institutional capabilities so those universities can run competitive and mission-aligned research programs under standard federal peer review, and ultimately increasing the long-term share of competitively awarded federal research funding that these institutions can attract. The intent is long-term growth in research competitiveness, with an explicit focus on building infrastructure and capability rather than short-term, one-off work.
Funding is expected to total up to $4 million across the program, with DoD anticipating between one and four awards. Individual awards may be as large as $1,000,000 in total costs, structured as up to $500,000 per year over a two-year period. As with many federal opportunities, all awards depend on the availability of appropriated funds, and the agency makes clear it can choose to fund all, some, part, or none of the proposals received, meaning submission does not guarantee an award.
This opportunity is a discretionary grant in the science and technology and other research and development category (CFDA 12.431). The funding opportunity number is FOA AFRL AFOSR 2022 0007. The announcement was created on May 4, 2022, and the original closing date listed is February 21, 2023. Eligibility is summarized in the public listing as "Others" with additional eligibility details provided in the full announcement; however, the narrative description makes clear the primary intended applicants are institutions of higher education located in DEPSCoR-eligible states and territories, proposing capacity-building efforts tied to research areas relevant to DoD mission needs.Apply for FOA AFRL AFOSR 2022 0007
