Opportunity Information: Apply for 25 522

The **EPSCoR Research Infrastructure Improvement: Research Incubators for STEM Excellence (E-RISE)** program, funded by the **National Science Foundation (NSF)**, aims to enhance **research capacity and competitiveness** in **EPSCoR-eligible** states, territories, and commonwealths. It fosters **collaboration** among academic institutions, government agencies, industry, and non-profits to strengthen **research ecosystems** and drive **scientific and technological innovation**.

The program supports **hypothesis-driven or problem-focused research** that aligns with a jurisdiction’s **scientific and technological priorities**, as defined in relevant regional plans and reports. Proposals should lead to **new knowledge generation**, emphasize **emerging or interdisciplinary research areas**, and promote **sustainable research networks** across different institutions and sectors.

Successful E-RISE projects must: - **Develop research capacity** in a specific STEM field. - **Enhance workforce training** relevant to the research area. - **Encourage cross-sector collaboration** between academic and non-academic organizations. - **Integrate research outcomes with societal impact considerations**. - **Present a sustainability plan** to maintain project benefits beyond NSF funding.

### **Eligibility** Proposals can be submitted by: - **Colleges and universities (including PhD and non-PhD granting institutions)** in the U.S. and its territories. - **Non-profit research organizations** with a strong connection to education and research. - **Tribal governments and Indigenous communities** (both federally recognized and non-recognized).

Proposals must come from organizations **within EPSCoR-eligible jurisdictions** and be **multi-institutional or multi-organizational**, fostering **broad research networks** within the jurisdiction. Lead applicants **must not already serve in that role** on a current E-RISE or RII Track-1 award unless it is in its final year or under a no-cost extension.

The NSF **encourages partnerships** with: - **Emerging Research Institutions** (as federally defined). - **Institutions working to broaden participation in STEM**. - **Other EPSCoR and non-EPSCoR jurisdictions** if a critical expertise gap is identified.

While collaboration with international and non-EPSCoR U.S. institutions is allowed, EPSCoR funds must primarily support domestic efforts.
