Expeditions in Computing

The National Science Foundation's (NSF) Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) established the Expeditions in Computing (Expeditions) program to build on past successes and provide the CISE research and education community with the opportunity to pursue ambitious, fundamental research agendas that promise to define the future of computing and information. Key aspects of this opportunity include: • The program is open to institutions of higher education accredited in the U.S. with undergraduate, masters, and doctoral programs in computer and information science and engineering fields. • Subawardees may include two-and four-year U.S. institutions of higher education, non-profit non-academic organizations, and other organizations with independent sources of support. • Expeditions projects are funded at levels up to $15,000,000 for seven years and represent some of the largest single investments currently made by the CISE directorate. • The awards made in this program will complement research areas supported by other CISE programs, which target particular computer and information science and engineering fields.
