in the engineering, physical, information and life sciences, supporting
supports scientific and far reaching technological discoveries.
The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) serves to
support Air Force goals of control and maximum utilization of air,
space, and cyberspace.
The Office of Naval Research (ONR) makes broad investments in
basic and applied research that will increase fundamental knowledge
that will lead to new future naval capabilities and systems.
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)
explicitly reaches for transformational change instead of incremental
advances.
The Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs
(CDMRP) biomedical research in response to the expressed needs

Key takeaways from Webinar #1
| 7
RECAP
• The DoD has broad research interests in almost every field of science
and technology. The tough part is finding your niche.
• DoD is not like other funding agencies. You must adapt your research
concepts and proposal development style to meet DoD’s unique
requirements.
• Don’t be afraid of applying to the DoD. The DoD is competitive and
mission-driven, but it also funds more research at academic institutions
than NSF.

CRAFTING A DoD CONCEPT
• Proposers do not read and analyze the BAA.
• Propose incremental science.
• Proposers do not use language that catches the interest of Program
Managers.
• The unique value proposition is unclear.
• Researchers do not follow the proposal development requirements.

those programs successful.”
