Opportunity Information: Apply for PD 20 7643

The Environmental Sustainability program, part of the Environmental Engineering and Sustainability cluster, aims to foster engineered systems that support human well-being while protecting environmental health. The program emphasizes long-term research that integrates social sciences and ethics to achieve a balance between ecological protection and economic stability.

Four primary research areas are supported:

1. **Industrial Ecology**: Focus on modeling advancements like life cycle assessment and metrics for sustainable systems, with an emphasis on innovations.

2. **Green Engineering**: Encouragement for research that improves manufacturing processes, green infrastructure, and smart growth strategies, along with techniques for managing stormwater and recycling.

3. **Ecological Engineering**: Proposals should aim at restoring ecological functions and enhancing natural capital for sustainable development.

4. **Earth Systems Engineering**: Research should address large-scale engineering solutions for mitigating climate change and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Proposals must involve engineering principles and include a graduate student, along with opportunities for undergraduates. The program also welcomes integration of social, behavioral, and economic sciences.

Proposals unrelated to the four main areas may still be considered but should be discussed with the program director beforehand. Any international research proposals must explain their benefit to the United States. Proposals should highlight the innovative or transformative nature of the work and its societal or industry impact.

Grant awards generally last up to three years, with larger budgets requiring prior consultation with the program director. The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) program is also encouraged, with annual July submission deadlines. Additional types of proposals for workshops, rapid response research, and collaborative projects with industry are accepted year-round, but should also be discussed with the program director beforehand. Compliance with the Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide is essential to avoid rejection without review.
