Additional Information of Eligibility:
This MURI competition is open only to, and full proposals are to be submitted only by, U. S. institutions of higher education (universities) including DoD institutions of higher education, with degree-granting programs in science and/or engineering.

To the extent that it is a part of a U. S. institution of higher education and is not designated as a Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC), a University Affiliated Research Center (UARC) or other University Affiliated Laboratory (UAL) is eligible to submit a proposal to this MURI competition and/or receive MURI funds.

However, the eligibility of a UAL (other than a FFRDC) to submit a URI proposal does not exempt the proposal from any evaluation factor contained in this FOA.

Ineligible organizations (e.g., industry, DoD laboratories, FFRDCs, and foreign universities) may collaborate on the research but may not receive MURI funds directly or via subaward.

When a modest amount of additional funding for an ineligible organization is necessary to make the proposed collaboration possible, such funds may be requested via a separate proposal from that organization.

This supplemental proposal shall be attached to the primary MURI proposal and will be evaluated separately by the responsible Research Topic Chief.

If approved, the supplemental proposal may be funded by the responsible agency using non-MURI funds.
