MPS Materials Research Programs (MPS Materials)

The U.S. National Science Foundation Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences (NSF MPS) supports multiple materials research programs that advance fundamental understanding of materials, their properties, and their potential applications. The programs covered by this solicitation are: Biomaterials Ceramics Condensed Matter and Materials Theory Condensed Matter Physics Electronic and Photonic Materials Metals and Metallic Nanostructures Polymers Solid State and Materials Chemistry Other materials research funding opportunities are covered by separate NSF solicitations, such as the NSF Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers and Designing Materials to Revolutionize and Engineer our Future. NSF MPS is particularly interested in intellectually ambitious and potentially transformative foundational research. Proposals need not promise a near-term product, deployment, or commercial outcome, nor need they address later-stage development to be competitive. Program Details U.S. National Science Foundation is a federal agency that offers the MPS Materials Research Programs (MPS Materials) grant program to support eligible programs and projects. This funding opportunity is available nationally and is administered by U.S. National Science Foundation through Grants.gov. Organizations seeking funding for eligible programs and projects should review the details below and confirm their eligibility before preparing an application. Eligibility Eligible applicants include eligible organizations. Organizations that meet the eligibility criteria are encouraged to apply and to review the full program guidelines before submission. Because eligibility rules and funding priorities can change between cycles, applicants should always confirm the current requirements with U.S. National Science Foundation or on Grants.gov before investing time in an application. Funding and Timeline The application deadline is August 24, 2076 (18249 days remaining). Applicants should allow sufficient time to gather required documentation, including organizational information, project descriptions, budgets, and supporting materials as specified in the program guidelines. Submitting a complete application well ahead of the deadline reduces the risk of disqualification on technical or administrative grounds. Program Focus This grant supports eligible programs and projects. This grant is associated with NAICS industry classifications: 541715, 541714, 611310.
