NASA EPSCoR

The NASA EPSCoR program allows more states to participate in space and aeronautics research, broadening the expertise available to the agency and expanding the workforce of educated and trained STEM students capable of meeting global challenges.

There are two components:

Research Infrastructure Development (RID) awards provide core funding to improve research capacity.
Research Implementation Awards provide funding for research projects over a three-year period. The amount is cost-shared by the recipient’s home institution.
