Opportunity Information: Apply for 24 517
The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Division of Mathematical Sciences (DMS), is offering the Partnerships for Research Innovation in the Mathematical Sciences (PRIMES) program (Funding Opportunity Number: 24-517). The main purpose of this grant is to strengthen sustained, meaningful partnerships between U.S. minority-serving institutions (MSIs) and DMS-supported Mathematical Sciences Research Institutes. The program is designed to expand research participation and build stronger pathways into the mathematical sciences for people from groups that have been historically underrepresented in the field. In practice, PRIMES is meant to connect MSI faculty and students more directly with the research programs, communities, and opportunities hosted by major NSF-supported math research institutes.
Eligibility to submit a proposal is narrowly defined. Only MSIs of higher education in the United States may apply, and the applying MSI must award degrees in the mathematical sciences. In addition, the submitting institution cannot be classified as a doctoral university with "Very High Research Activity" (an R1 institution) under the most recent Carnegie Classification. For MSI status, NSF points applicants to the U.S. Department of Education definitions and listings, and notes that eligibility can also be verified using the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) maintained by the National Center for Education Statistics. The solicitation also includes a key limitation involving associate-degree institutions: 2-year and 4-year associate degree-granting colleges generally cannot submit a PRIMES proposal themselves unless they have an established degree-granting partnership with an otherwise eligible institution. Even when they cannot serve as the lead applicant, these associate-degree institutions may still participate as partners alongside a leading MSI.
The program is explicitly partnership-oriented, and it identifies a set of eligible partner organizations: DMS-supported Mathematical Sciences Research Institutes. The opportunity highlights the institutes listed on mathinstitutes.org and names the currently eligible institute partners as the American Institute of Mathematics (AIM), Institute for Advanced Study (IAS), Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM), Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation (IMSI), Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM), and the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (SLMath, formerly MSRI). The intent is for the MSI to build collaborative activities with one or more of these institutes that increase access to institute research programs, strengthen research experiences and mentorship, and help participants develop professional networks tied to the broader mathematical sciences community.
Rules about leadership and budgeting reinforce that the MSI must be in the driver seat. The Principal Investigator (PI) must hold a faculty appointment at the MSI that is submitting the proposal. If a project includes financial support for any of the partner research institutes, that support must be requested through subawards, rather than having the institute apply directly as the main proposer. This structure keeps the administrative and programmatic leadership with the MSI while still allowing institute partners to be resourced appropriately for their role in the collaboration.
From the funding details provided, this is a discretionary grant program under the NSF, categorized under science and technology and other research and development (CFDA number 47.049). The opportunity lists an award ceiling of $400,000 and anticipates making about 8 awards. The original closing date is August 21, 2024. Overall, PRIMES is best understood as a targeted NSF investment in institutional partnerships that broaden participation in mathematical sciences research by creating stronger, better-supported connections between MSIs and major NSF-backed math research institutes.Apply for 24 517
