Additional Information on Eligibility: The sponsoring organizations support research at historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and minority institutions (MIs). We actively seek research proposals from HBCUs and MIs in full competition with all offerors who may submit proposals under this announcement. We also encourage the inclusion of HBCUs and MIs as part of a consortium proposal or as subgrantees to prime recipients for collaborative research. For purposes of this grants announcement, paragraph A(7), Technology Area 2, High Energy Density Materials for Propulsion and Power Generation, sub-topic, Electromagnetic control of hypersonic shockwaves for reentry bodies, has been identified by the NASA/MSFC as an HBCU set-aside.
