Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) - for Proposal Submission to Navy: The Department of Defense (DoD) announces the Fiscal Year 2008 Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP), a part of the University Research Initiative (URI). DURIP is designed to improve the capabilities of U.S. institutions of higher education (hereafter referred to as "universities") to conduct research and to educate scientists and engineers in areas important to national defense, by providing funds for the acquisition of research equipment. The research areas of interest for the administering agencies are available on-line at the following addresses: Army Research Office: http://www.aro.army.mil/ (select "For the Researcher" and then "Funding Opportunities") See BAA W911NF-07-R-0003 Office of Naval Research: http://www.onr.navy.mil/ (select "ONR Science and Technology Departments") (Refer questions about appropriate program managers to contact to Dr. Bill Lukens, 703-696-4668) Air Force Office of Scientific Research: http://www.afosr.af.mil/ (select "Research Areas") For detailed information regarding technical goals, potential proposers are advised to refer to the announcements cited above and may contact DoD program managers listed therein to explore mutual interest before submitting proposals. A proposal may be submitted to more than one agency; however, only one award will be given. A central purpose of the DURIP is to provide equipment to enhance research-related education. Therefore proposals must address the impact of the equipment on the institutions ability to educate students, through research, in disciplines important to DoD missions. This announcement seeks proposals to purchase instrumentation in support of research areas of interest to the DoD, including areas of research supported by the administering agencies.
