DoD Program Announcement - Defense University Research Instrumentation Program

The Department of Defense (DoD) announces the Fiscal Year 2006 Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP), a part of the University Research Initiative. DURIP is 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. A central purpose of the DURIP is to provide equipment to enhance research-related education. Therefore proposals must address the impact of the equipment on the institution’s ability to educate students, through research, in disciplines important to DoD missions. This announcement seeks proposals to purchase instrumentation in support of research areas of interest to the DoD, including areas of research supported by the administering agencies. More information
