The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Reactor Sharing and Outreach Program Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is now accepting applications!
Approximately $1 million is available 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. Applications are due no later than 5 p.m. ET Oct. 16, 2024. DOE plans to announce awards in May 2025.
