Description
The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) Army Research Laboratory (ARL) is soliciting research proposals for foundational research that supports the ARL mission. The research topics of interest include basic and applied research in areas such as materials science, mechanical engineering, and computer science. The ARL is looking for innovative research concepts that can advance the state of the art or increase knowledge and understanding in these areas.
Some key points to note about this opportunity include:
• The ARL is interested in research that can be shown to enable the future Army to deploy, fight, and win decisively against any adversary.
• The ARL has established several targeted opportunities, including the Single Investigator Award, Short-Term Innovative Research Award, Early Career Program Award, Research Instrumentation Award, and Conference and Symposia Grant Award.
• Proposals may be submitted at any time while the BAA is open, and the ARL encourages applicants to contact the Technical Point of Contact (TPOC) for a given topic before submitting a whitepaper or proposal.
• The ARL will provide no funding for direct reimbursement of whitepaper or proposal development costs.
