Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0001781

The FY 2018 Research Opportunities in High Energy Physics funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DE-FOA-0001781) is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Science, specifically through its High Energy Physics (HEP) program. The core purpose of the announcement is to solicit both new proposals and renewal applications that support research programs in high energy physics. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at advancing DOE-supported HEP research efforts, which typically include theory, experiments, detector and instrumentation R&D, computing, and related activities that contribute to understanding fundamental particles and forces, although the announcement text provided summarizes the scope at a high level rather than listing subtopics.

The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is classified as Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The program is associated with CFDA number 81.049, which is the federal assistance listing commonly used for DOE Office of Science financial assistance programs. The opportunity was created on June 28, 2017, with an original application deadline of September 12, 2017, placing it in the FY 2018 planning cycle for awards and project starts.

Eligibility is focused on organizations that typically conduct federally funded research in the physical sciences. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations, including both nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education). This eligibility set is designed to capture the main ecosystem of U.S.-based university departments, university-affiliated research institutes, and independent nonprofit research organizations that carry out HEP research programs.

In terms of scale, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $25,000,000, indicating the maximum anticipated amount for a single award under this announcement. That ceiling does not mean every award will be that large; rather, it sets the upper bound for particularly large efforts (for example, major collaboration activities, substantial detector/instrumentation work, or broad research portfolios). The announcement anticipates approximately 120 awards, which suggests a program structure that supports a wide range of projects, from individual investigator or small-group research efforts to larger collaborative activities, depending on DOE program priorities and available appropriations.

Overall, this FOA functions as DOE HEP's mechanism for sustaining and expanding the national high energy physics research portfolio by inviting proposals from qualified universities and nonprofits, with a substantial potential top-end award size and a large expected number of total awards.
