Fundamental Research Program for IUCRCs (NSF 10-507)

• Industry-defined fundamental research• Broadens the scientific and engineering understanding

• Industry participation helps drive innovation

• Proposals must discuss benefits for current industry members while charting a path for potentially new and emerging research directions

• Proposals must demonstrate measurable industry collaboration and involvement

• Centers must be in good standing

• No longer a supplement; one integrated proposal per Center (collaborative)

• Deadline: February 17, 2010 by 5 PM

• Award amounts• $50,000 to $200,000

• .
