The Department of Defense (DoD) is offering this Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) grant to support basic research in science and engineering at U.S. institutions of higher education. This grant is for multidisciplinary efforts fostering rapid advancements in scientific areas aligned with DoD interests. Basic research is defined as systematic study for greater fundamental knowledge without specific applications, covering physical, engineering, environmental, and life sciences vital for long-term national security. It prioritizes farsighted, high-payoff research crucial for technological progress. The DoD invests broadly to gain early insight into new scientific knowledge, ensuring future advantage.

| Description: | The MURI program supports basic research in science and engineering at U.S. institutions of higher education that is of potential interest to DoD. The program is focused on multidisciplinary research efforts where more than one traditional discipline interacts to provide rapid advances in scientific areas of interest to the DoD. As defined by the DoD, basic research is systematic study directed toward greater knowledge or understanding of the fundamental aspects of phenomena and of observable facts without specific applications towards processes or products in mind. It includes all scientific study and experimentation directed toward increasing fundamental knowledge and understanding in those fields of the physical, engineering, environmental, and life sciences related to long-term national security needs. It is farsighted high payoff research that provides the basis for technological progress. (DoD 7000.14.R, vol. 2B, chap.5). DoDs basic research program invests broadly in many specific fields to ensure that it has early cognizance of new scientific knowledge.
