Program Description
DURIP is a multi-agency DoD program within the University Research Initiative designed to improve the capabilities of U.S. institutions of higher education to conduct research and to educate scientists and engineers in areas important to national defense by providing funds for the acquisition of research equipment.

Research Areas of Interest
Each year that DURIP is in effect, a complete announcement will provide detailed program information, including the deadline date for submitting proposals. DURIP proposals submitted to ONR should facilitate research in an area of interest to ONR, as described in the Science and Technology section of the ONR Website. Potential proposers may contact the appropriate program managers, listed with each area of interest, to explore possible mutual interests before submitting proposals.

Conditions
DURIP funds will be used for the acquisition of major equipment to augment current or develop new research capabilities in support of DoD-relevant research. Proposals may request $50,000 to $1,000,000. Proposals for purely instructional equipment are not eligible. General-purpose computing facilities are not appropriate for DURIP funding, but requests for computers for DoD-relevant research programs are appropriate.

Funds provided under DURIP may not be used for the construction or modification of buildings, building support systems (e.g. heating/ventilation/air conditioning, plumbing, and electrical), or fixed equipment (e.g. clean rooms and fume hoods). Proposed budgets can include costs (e.g. machine shop expenses) for constructing, assembling and/or installing equipment, but the budget may not request funding for salaries of faculty, postdoctoral associates, or students. Costs for continued operation and maintenance are not eligible for consideration. This competition is open to U.S. institutions of higher education with degree granting programs in science, math, or engineering.

Proposal Evaluation and Selection
Proposals are evaluated competitively. The evaluation criteria are listed in the current program announcement.
