University Reactor Sharing and Outreach Program
The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Reactor Sharing and Outreach Program Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) offers approximately $1 million to U.S. colleges and universities with existing nuclear research reactors that are interested in sharing resources and facilities with other U.S. colleges, tribal colleges, universities, technical and vocational institutions, and K-12 schools that currently do not have access to research reactors to promote nuclear energy curriculum and instruction.
This FOA also promotes engagement with underrepresented communities to increase nuclear science, engineering, and technology awareness, and spark an early interest in STEM careers.
DOE anticipates making up to five awards worth $200,000 each and plans to announce the awards in May 2025.
Please read the FOA here.
