Annual Recurring University Training and Research
Funds early-stage research and training for engineering and science students at U.S. colleges, awarded every year by DOE's national energy lab.
Federal research money concentrates in a small number of institutions, and this DOE programme exists partly to widen who gets trained by it. It renews every year.
Three things are funded together: educating and training engineers and scientists, novel early-stage research at U.S. colleges and universities, and building research capacity at institutions serving underrepresented and structurally ma…
Research and development grants training the next generation of engineers and scientists through novel, early-stage research at U.S. colleges and universities, prioritising institutions serving underrepresented and structurally marginalised communities; the notice does not name a specific research topic.
