Please see recent RFPs for full program descriptions

Eligibility for NASA EPSCoR Programs:

Proposals will be accepted from institutions of higher education in Kentucky. Eligibility is not limited to Kentucky Space Grant Consortium Affiliate Institutions. US Citizenship is not required, but funded investigators must be eligible for employment in the US. Reporting on current and prior awards must be up to date to be eligible for funding. Kentucky commmercial, non-profit, and government entities can partner with KY academic institutions for proposals.

Reporting Requirements:

NASA KY will provide Principal Investigators (PIs) with a reporting template for each award. PIs are required to report research productivity and students supported via: 1) Progress reports during the award period, 2) Final Report within 30 days of the end of the award, and 3) Post-award annual update 1 year after project completion. Reporting must be current in order for NASA KY to meet NASA and state annual report cycles. Project reports should be submitted to nasa@uky.edu.

NASA EPSCoR Research Award (RA) Program

In addition to the programs above, NASA Kentucky solicits pre-proposals annually and competitively selects one for development into a full proposal to submit to the national NASA EPSCoR Research opportunity.

RFP-24-004: NASA KY EPSCoR Research Award (RA) Pre-Proposals 2024 (pdf) OPEN

The NASA Office of STEM Engagement (OSTEM), in cooperation with NASA Mission Directorates and ten Centers, solicits proposals for the NASA Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) Basic Research award program. Each funded NASA EPSCoR Basic Research proposal is expected to establish research activities that will make significant contributions to the strategic research and technology development priorities of one or more of the Mission Directorates and contribute to the overall research infrastructure, science and technology capabilities, higher education, and economic development of the jurisdiction (Kentucky).
