Funder: National Science Foundation
Due Dates: Proposals accepted anytime
Funding Amounts: No specified ceiling; typical NSF engineering research awards range from $200,000–$500,000 over 2–4 years
Summary: Supports fundamental research on advanced analytical methods to improve operations in complex, decision-driven environments, with emphasis on high-impact engineering applications.
Key Information: Proposals must be strongly motivated by high-potential engineering applications; methodological work alone is not sufficient.
