NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research Centers Program (I/UCRC)
The National Science Foundation has announced the new Industry/University Cooperative Research Centers program, or I/UCRC. The number of proposals per institution is not limited as long as each one involves different disciplines and different industries. The program is designed to develop long-term partnerships among industry, academe, and government. The centers are catalyzed by a small investment from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and are primarily supported by industry center members, with NSF taking a supporting role in the development and evolution of the center.
Two kinds of awards:
Planning Grants
Full Center Proposals
Award amounts and requirements are tiered according to whether the proposal is a planning grant, a Phase I First Five-Year Center Award, a Phase II Second Five-year Center Award, or a Phase III Third Five-Year Center Award.
Two deadlines are posted for both letters of intent and for proposals:
Letters of intent: January 2 and June 29, 2012
Proposals: March 6 and September 28, 2012
