The Collective Judgment Formation (CJF) Collaborative Research Alliance (CRA) program is focused on basic research to create and expand scientific understanding of human-agent interactions in AI-supported team decision making for intelligence activities. Work within this program will require the problem space to be addressed from multiple disciplinary perspectives working in concert to discover novel knowledge […]

The DEVCOM ARL Army Research Office Core Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority-Serving Institutions (HBCU/MI) program funds research performed by HBCU and MI institutions and principal investigators at those institutions that are often new to ARO or to specific research programs within the ARL foundational research competencies. The program offers co-funding to technical points of contact (TPOCs) to expand and diversify the research performer base, while broadening communities of interest and practice within the ARL competencies. Each year, new research proposals are considered for funding with TPOCs recommending top proposals through the associated competency.

DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory ‘s Army Research Office, in partnership with the Laboratory for Physical Sciences (LPS), is soliciting proposals for research in Trapped Ions & Neutral Atoms Quantum Computing (TINA QC). This is a proposed four-year program and is primarily focused on three topic areas in the field of quantum computing (QC) with trapped ions […]

DEVCOM ARL established the DEVCOM ARL Historically Black College and University/Minority-Serving Institutions Research Partnerships to advance innovative basic research in areas of strategic importance to the Army. The program will provide funding for HBCU/MIs to support basic research focused on partnerships with major DEVCOM ARL research programs, bringing competitively selected HBCU/MI research teams into existing Army Futures Command (AFC) Collaborative Research Alliances (CRAs), Collaborative Technology Alliances (CTAs), and research centers.

The DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory seeks unclassified research proposals from Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority-Serving Institutions (HBCU/MI) under the DEVCOM ARL BAA to establish an Army HBCU/MI Early Career Program. Proposals must address an Army Research Office topic in the ARL BAA. The program embodies the high priority placed by the government on maintaining the leadership position of the United States in science by producing outstanding scientists and engineers and nurturing their continued development.

DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory, in collaboration with the Laboratory for Physical Sciences (LPS), is soliciting proposals for foundational research in superconducting electronics (SCE).

IARPA, in partnership with DEVCOM ARL’s Army Research Office, seeks research and development of innovative, energy-efficient, reliable computer architectures for the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Intelligence Community (IC) to implement large-scale data-analytic applications.

The Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) is a competitive solicitation procedure used to obtain proposals for basic and applied research.

The Army Center for Synthetic Biology is a basic research program initiated by the Combat Capabilities Development Command Army Research Laboratory. It focuses on areas of strategic importance to U.S. national security. It seeks to increase the Army’s intellectual capital in synthetic biology and improve its ability to address future challenges.

The Defense Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (DEPSCoR) is a capacity building program that is designed to strengthen the research infrastructure at institutions of higher education in underutilized States/Territories.

DURIP is designed to improve the capabilities of accredited United States 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 or instrumentation.

The Department of Defense Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative is a tri-service Department of Defense Program, part of the University Research Initiative.

The DEVCOM ARL implementation of the AFC Army Research Risk Assessment Protection Program (ARRP) is an effort to help identify and mitigate existing or potential risk of Conflicts of Commitment/Conflicts of Interest (CoC/CoI) in Army research grants and cooperative agreements.

DEVCOM ARL administers the Research and Education Program (REP) for HBCUs/MIs on behalf of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E)). Under this program, qualifying covered institutions submit proposals to compete for basic research and instrumentation grants.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence, Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA), in partnership with DEVCOM ARL, aims to advance the state of the science in universal fault-tolerant quantum computing by demonstrating high-fidelity entanglement between error-corrected logical qubits using a modular architecture.

The National Security Agency’s Laboratory for Physical Sciences (LPS) in partnership with DEVCOM ARL launched the LPS Qubit Collaboratory (LQC). The LQC pursues disruptive qubit research, innovative workforce development programs, and deep, collaborative partnerships to tackle some of the hardest open problems in quantum information science and technology.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence, Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA), in partnership with DEVCOM ARL, aims to develop novel technologies that will enable intelligence analysts to substantially improve the evidence and reasoning in draft analytic reports. Intelligence analysts sort through huge amounts of often uncertain and conflicting information as they strive to answer intelligence questions.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence, Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA), in partnership with DEVCOM ARL, seeks research and development of innovative, energy-efficient, reliable computer architectures for the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community to implement large-scale data-analytic applications, as well as other classes of large problems.

The xTech program, led by the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology (ASA(ALT)), manages the Army’s prize competitions to award and accelerate transformative technology solutions that can help solve Army challenges.
