Nuclear Engineering Education Research (NEER) Program: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Idaho Operations Office (ID) is seeking applications for research and development projects from U.S. colleges and universities with nuclear engineering programs or options or licensed, operating research reactors. Applications should be directed to state-of-the-art research that contributes to any of the following nine areas: reactor physics, reactor engineering, reactor materials, radiological engineering, radioactive waste management, applied radiation science, nuclear safety and risk analysis, innovative technologies for next generation reactors, space power and propulsion, or radiation sources, and health physics. The research supported must be innovative. Research proposing incremental improvements in technologies related to conventional light water reactor technologies, or research typically supported by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission or other DOE Program Offices is not encouraged.
