The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) has announced an open call for research proposals in various scientific and engineering fields. Researchers are invited to submit pre-proposals year-round, with the possibility of securing funding to support innovative projects. The goal of this announcement is to advance research in key areas that benefit both military operations and civilian infrastructure.
This is a continuous, open announcement, meaning that proposals can be submitted at any time throughout the year. While there is no formal deadline for submission, funding availability may limit the number of awards granted in specific research areas. Researchers are encouraged to apply early and explore a wide range of disciplines. Pre-proposals will be reviewed on an ongoing basis, offering flexibility in the timing of submissions.
Key areas of interest include military engineering, coastal engineering, environmental sustainability, geotechnical engineering, cold regions research, information technology, and more. Research topics range from vehicle mobility and protective structures to water quality and hazardous waste treatment. While there are many research areas open for consideration, the availability of funds may impact the number of projects that can be selected for development.
