ONR - Young Investigator Program

Organization: Office of Naval Research

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is interested in receiving proposals for its Young Investigator Program (YIP). YIP seeks to identify and support academic scientists and engineers who are in their first or second full-time tenure-track or tenure-track-equivalent academic appointment and for FY16, have begun their first appointment on or after Nov. 1, 2010, and who show exceptional promise for doing creative research. The program's objectives are to attract outstanding faculty members of Institutions of Higher Education (hereafter also called "universities") to the Department of Navy's (DoN's) research program, to support their research, and to encourage their teaching and research careers.
