Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 22 DN 130 NFRA MSI
The MSI National Nuclear Forensics Expertise Development Program (NNFEDP) Nuclear Forensics Research Award is a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding opportunity designed to strengthen and expand the nuclear forensics talent pipeline in the United States. The program focuses on developing a workforce of recognized technical experts and future leaders in nuclear forensics by encouraging meaningful academic and research collaboration across universities, national and defense laboratories, and the National Technical Nuclear Forensics (NTNF) interagency community. In practice, the award is meant to support research and related workforce-development activities that help build specialized expertise, encourage cross-sector partnerships, and increase the depth of U.S. capability to analyze and interpret nuclear and radiological materials in support of national security missions.
This opportunity is identified as a discretionary grant under Funding Opportunity Number DHS 22 DN 130 NFRA MSI and is administered by the Department of Homeland Security, Office of Procurement Operations - Grants Division. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that DHS expects to have substantial involvement during the period of performance compared with a standard grant. That often translates into closer coordination with the government on technical direction, deliverables, collaboration pathways, and program alignment with NTNF priorities, while still allowing the recipient to conduct the core research and associated program activities.
The activity category for the award is Science and Technology and other Research and Development, and it is associated with CFDA number 97.130. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education as well as private institutions of higher education, signaling that the opportunity is centered on academic research capacity and university-led partnerships. The title and framing indicate an emphasis on MSI participation, meaning the award is structured to support Minority Serving Institutions as key contributors to nuclear forensics research and workforce development, expanding access and representation in a highly specialized national security field.
Financially, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $1,395,000, with an expectation of one award. This suggests a single, relatively substantial project rather than multiple smaller awards, and it implies a competitive selection process aimed at identifying one leading proposal that best advances the program goals. The funding opportunity was created on July 18, 2022, with an original application closing date of August 30, 2022.
Overall, the core purpose of the NNFEDP Nuclear Forensics Research Award is to grow the nation s nuclear forensics bench strength by supporting university-based research efforts that connect directly to the broader NTNF interagency mission space. The program emphasizes collaboration as the mechanism for building expertise, encouraging recipients to work in ways that integrate academic research with real-world technical needs and the specialized infrastructure and subject matter expertise found in national and defense laboratories.Apply for DHS 22 DN 130 NFRA MSI
