Annual Competitive Grants
External Research Support issues an annual announcement of Funding Opportunities for competitive proposals for grants and cooperative agreements to support research in earthquake hazards, the physics of earthquakes, earthquake occurrence, and earthquake safety policy.
The application period is generally open from early March to mid May. Sign up with www.grants.gov for a notice for CFDA number 15.807 actions.
During the Application period, applicants must submit proposals and other required documents through Grants.gov; paper copies will not be accepted. Please note that the requirements and other guidance for submitting proposals, referred to as the Program Announcement, can only be accessed through www.grants.gov.
