| Additional Information on Eligibility: | III. ELIGIBILITY INFORMATION Government agencies, DoD laboratories and universities, and Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs) may collaborate on proposed research but may not receive NSSEFF funds, directly or via subaward. Non-profit and for-profit organizations may collaborate on proposed research and may receive NSSEFF funds via subaward. However, the NSSEFF program is oriented towards funding research at universities. Universities must perform the majority of the proposed work and receive the majority of granted funds. All awardees will receive a research grant and the title of NSSEFF Fellow. NSSEFF Fellows and their students are provided with opportunities that are designed to enhance their understanding of DoD’s critical research needs and interact with DoD senior Science and Technology (S&T) program leaders. Fellows and their students are expected to attend NSSEFF activities scheduled throughout the year. These activities may include an orientation meeting, site visits to DoD labs, technical workshops, and an annual meeting to report the progress of NSSEFF–sponsored research. NSSEFF Fellows may also be encouraged to serve as members of DoD advisory boards, panels, or groups. For a list of current NSSEFF Fellows, refer to http://www.acq.osd.mil/rd/basic_research/program_info/nsseff.html. Awardees selected for research grants may be asked to submit a revised proposal for a reduced cost. Grants to a university may be terminated if the principal investigator (PI) severs connections with the university or is unable to continue active participation in the research. Grants to a university may also be terminated if the university severs connections with the PI. Eligible Institutions Accredited U.S. institutions of higher education (universities) with doctoral degree-granting programs are eligible to apply. DoD institutions are not eligible to apply. Eligible Individuals Outstanding faculty with tenure and full-time research staff with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to conduct the proposed research as the principal investigator (PI) are invited to work with his/her institution to submit an application. Applicants selected for NSSEFF awards are likely to have received awards or honors, or have a named position or a position of distinction, such as an elected fellow of a national professional society. In all cases, they will have a record of substantial scientific contributions. The PI must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. Other Eligibility Criteria Number of Applications: The PI may submit only one application in response to this FOA. There is no limit to the number of applications that an institution may submit. Number of PIs: Only one PI may be designated on the application.
