Department of Homeland Security (DHS Centers) Program: The Department of Homeland Security Center, in conjunction with previously established Centers, brings the intellectual capital of our higher educational institutions to bear on helping to ensure the security of the Nation. Accordingly, this Broad Agency Announcement invites eligible institutions, partners, and groups of investigators to form consortia capable of mounting a sustained and innovative research and education effort in the specific area of the Study of High Consequence Event Preparedness and Response. Respondents to this BAA should be cognizant of the fact that the Science and Technology Directorate of the Department of Homeland Security is a mission-driven program dealing with the security of the U.S., focusing on weapons of mass destruction, resultant disruptions and other possible effects. Consequently, outcomes derived from the research and education of this center should emphasize applications related to the organizational, technical and educational tools required to prepare for and respond to high consequence events, particularly those resulting from acts of terrorism. Further, approaches to develop the future intellectual capital and workforce necessary to respond to the challenges raised in this BAA should be broadly integrated across all lines of research. Please see attached BAA for contact and submission information.
