This is a federal program that funds research equipment and instrumentation for accredited U.S. universities and University Affiliated Research Centers doing defense-related basic research in science, math, and engineering. For-profit businesses, small businesses, and nonprofits cannot apply, so owners of those organizations should not spend time on it. Proposals must also show how the equipment will educate students in disciplines relevant to Department of War missions.

Grants to accredited U.S. institutions of higher education (excluding for-profit educational institutions) and University Affiliated Research Centers to purchase research equipment and instrumentation supporting basic research and research-related education in science, math, and engineering areas of interest to the Department of War.
In accordance with EO 14332, Improving Oversight of Federal Grantmaking, dated 7 August 2025, and EO 14303, Restoring Gold Standard Science, dated 23 May 2025, this Announcement seeks proposals from universities to purchase equipment and instrumentation in support of research in areas of interest to the DoW, reflecting the basic research priorities for the Department of War and advancing the administration and agency priorities (c.f., OMB memo M-25-34 “Fiscal Year 2027 Administration Research and Development Budget Priorities and Cross-Cutting Actions”). DoW interests include the areas of research supported by the Army Research Office (ARO), the Office of Naval Research (ONR), and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR).
A central purpose of the DURIP is to provide equipment and instrumentation to enhance research related education in areas of interest and priority to the DoW. Therefore, your proposal must address the impact of the equipment or instrumentation on your institution’s ability to educate students through research in disciplines important to DoW missions.
