Industry/University Cooperative Research Centers Program Description (PD)  (I/UCRC)

SYNOPSIS

The Industry/University Cooperative Research Centers (I/UCRCs) program develops long-term partnerships among industry, academe, and government. The centers are catalyzed by a small investment from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and are primarily supported by industry center members, with NSF taking a supporting role in their development and evolution. Each center is established to conduct research that is of interest to both the industry and the center. An I/UCRC contributes to the Nation's research infrastructure base and enhances the intellectual capacity of the engineering and science workforce through the integration of research and education.

See our current solicitation (NSF 01-116) for specific funding information or visit http://www.nsf.gov/eng/iucrc/ for more information.
