Idaho NASA EPSCoR Collaboration Grant

​

The goal of the Idaho NASA EPSCoR Collaboration Grant program is to support new collaborations for researchers (faculty and/or students) to increase Idaho's research capabilities. Often, these types of grants are used to fund travel to research centers (e.g., a NASA Center, a National Lab, or a potential industry partner).

​

Maximum award amount: $5,000

Award duration: Up to 1 year, but usually less

Matching requirement: 1:1 (In other words, a non-federal cash or in-kind match equal to the amount requested from Idaho NASA EPSCoR.)
