Faculty Research Initiation Fellowships (RIF) support faculty research residencies at NASA Centers to launch new collaborations and build lasting NASA research partnerships.
Previous RIG or BIG awardees may still be eligible for RIF funding if their proposed research is new, but priority will be given to researchers who have not received RIG or BIG awards.
Traditional Research Initiation Grant (RIG) supports Oklahoma researchers in new NASA research collaborations, funding personnel, supplies, and research visits to prepare for longer-term research grants.
EPSCoR Research Fellows grants support STEM researchers in EPSCoR jurisdictions through collaborations with top institutions, boosting research capacity and career development, with tracks for NSF and NASA.
Travel Grants support faculty and student researchers in visiting NASA scientists to explore research collaborations and build direct partnerships around research relevant to NASA and Oklahoma.
