Opportunity Information: Apply for FOA AFRL AFOSR 2022 0005
The Air Force Fiscal Year 2023 Young Investigator Research Program (YIP) is a discretionary research grant opportunity run by the Department of Defense through the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR). It is designed to support early-career scientists and engineers who have demonstrated strong potential to conduct high-impact basic research. The program is aimed at researchers who earned a Ph.D. or equivalent degree on or after April 1, 2015, and it emphasizes both scientific creativity and long-term career development. A central theme of the program is helping new investigators connect their foundational research ideas to the mission needs and technical challenges relevant to the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force.
The award is made to an eligible U.S. organization rather than directly to an individual. Eligible host organizations include U.S. institutions of higher education (public, state-controlled, and private), industrial laboratories, for-profit entities, and nonprofit research organizations, including 501(c)(3) nonprofits. The principal investigator must be employed full-time by the submitting organization in a regular, non-contractor position. In addition, the PI must be a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or permanent resident. The competition explicitly excludes researchers who are working at Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs) or at Department of Defense laboratories, meaning those environments cannot be the PI’s institutional home for this specific program.
In terms of funding, most YIP awards are structured as three-year grants. Typical support is up to $150,000 per year for three years, for a notional total of $450,000 across the project period. The posted award ceiling is $450,000. The opportunity also notes that truly exceptional proposals may be considered for higher funding levels and/or longer durations, but those cases are handled individually rather than treated as the standard model. The program expects to make a substantial number of awards if funds are available, anticipating at least 37 traditionally funded YIP awards under this competition. In addition, there is potential for up to two more awards through a partnership with the Laboratory for Physical Sciences (LPS), specifically in the Quantum Information Sciences area, which signals an added emphasis on quantum-related basic research topics.
Administratively, this opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number FOA AFRL AFOSR 2022-0005 and is categorized as a grant in the Science and Technology / Research and Development activity area (CFDA 12.800). The posting indicates it was created on March 7, 2022, with an original closing date of June 6, 2022, and an expected total of 39 awards. Overall, YIP is positioned as a career-accelerating basic research program: it provides multi-year support, targets investigators at an early but established stage post-Ph.D., and encourages alignment between fundamental science and the research challenges that matter to Air Force and Space Force missions.Apply for FOA AFRL AFOSR 2022 0005
