NSF Major Research Instrumentation Program
July 1, 2024
The Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Program serves to increase access to multi-user scientific and engineering instrumentation for research and research training in our Nation's institutions of higher education and not-for-profit scientific/engineering research organizations. An MRI award supports the acquisition or development of a multi-user research instrument that is, in general, too costly and/or not appropriate for support through other NSF programs. The MRI program requires that an MRI-eligible organization may, as a performing organization, submit or be included as a significantly funded subawardee in no more than three MRI proposals. Each performing organization is limited to a maximum of three proposals in revised “Tracks” as defined below, with no more than two submissions in Track 1 and no more than one submission in Track 2. One additional submission is permitted in the newly defined Track 3. Any MRI proposal may request support for either the acquisition or development of a research instrument. Within their submission limit, NSF strongly encourages organizations to submit proposals for innovative development projects.
- Track 1: Track 1 MRI proposals are those that request funds from NSF greater than or equal to $100,000 and less than $1,400,000.
- Track 2: Track 2 MRI proposals are those that request funds from NSF greater than or equal to $1,400,000 up to and including $4,000,000.
- Track 3: Track 3 MRI Proposals are those that request funds from NSF greater than or equal to $100,00 up to and including $4,000,000 for Helium recovery only.
Historically, Northwestern has had more groups wishing to submit proposals than are allowed under NSF guidelines. Therefore, a competitive process will be used to identify the most meritorious proposals for final submission. Details on the internal submission timeline and required documents are below.
