Occupational Safety and Health Education and Research Centers (T42): Purpose. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)/ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) invites grant applications for Education and Research Centers (ERC) that are focused on occupational safety and health training and research training. NIOSH is mandated to provide an adequate supply of qualified personnel to carry out the purposes of the Occupational Safety and Health Act, and the ERCs are one of the principal means for meeting this mandate. ERCs are academic institutions that provide interdisciplinary graduate training and continuing education in the core occupational safety and health areas of industrial hygiene (IH), occupational health nursing (OHN), occupational medicine residency (OMR), occupational safety (OS), as well as other closely related occupational safety and health (OSH) fields. Research and research training are integral components of ERCs, thus ERC scientists conduct peer reviewed, investigator initiated research on issues related to the National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA). The NIOSH homepage provides a full description of occupational safety and health program areas, http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/homepage.html. The ERCs also serve as regional resource centers for industry, labor, government, and the public. Mechanism of Support. This FOA uses the T42 mechanism for the support of ERCs. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The total amount of funds to be awarded under this program is approximately $20 million dollars per year for new competing applications, competing renewal applications, and continuing awards. The number of awards for this program is between 12 and 20 depending on the quality of the applications and funds available. Each year the number of new competing and competing renewal awards will vary between one and ten depending on the number of awards that have ended. Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications.
