FY24 DoD MURI opportunity overview
Presented by the Global Security Initiative
What is the DoD MURI?
The Department of Defense (DoD) Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program addresses high-risk basic research and attempts to understand or achieve something that has never been done before. The program is focused on multidisciplinary research efforts where more than one traditional discipline interacts to provide rapid advances in scientific areas of interest to the DoD. Collaboration is a key focus of MURI projects; MURIs are not single-investigator awards
