This department is offering a grant to facilitate the translation of NSF’s technology investments in Engineering Research Centers (ERC) and in Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) projects into the market place. The opportunity aims to speed the translation of ERC-generated research and technology advances to the marketplace or its implementation into critical public engineered systems by engaging undergraduate and graduate students in the innovation process through collaboration. It also aims to strengthen the research capacity of active NSF SBIR/STTR Phase II awardees to speed the entry of their innovations into the marketplace through collaboration with an ERC. Closing date: Jul 02, 2013.
