Description
The Office of Naval Research (ONR), ONR Global (ONRG), and Marine Corps Warfighting Lab (MCWL) solicit long-range science and technology projects across science and engineering disciplines. This broad agency announcement supports basic research, applied research, advanced technology development, and, under certain conditions, advanced component development and prototypes. Its goal is to fund meritorious research offering potential advances and improvements in Navy and Marine Corps operations.
ONR identifies research interests through its technology areas. ONRG supports international collaboration through seed grants for innovative fundamental research, conferences, and workshops. MCWL uses concept-based experimentation to assess technologies in operational scenarios and environments. This announcement does not acquire technical, engineering, or other support services. Navy and Marine Corps STEM programs use a separate announcement.
