This Department of Defense (DoD) Multidisciplinary Research Program of the University Research Initiative (MURI) grant is designed to support fundamental basic research in science and engineering at U.S. institutions of higher education. The program specifically targets multidisciplinary research efforts where multiple traditional disciplines collaborate to foster rapid advancements in scientific areas of interest to the DoD. Basic research, as defined by the DoD, involves systematic study aimed at increasing knowledge and understanding of fundamental phenomena, without immediate product applications. It encompasses scientific study and experimentation across physical, engineering, environmental, and life sciences crucial for long-term national security needs, providing the foundation for future technological progress.

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.
