About EPSCoR

EPSCoR was established by the National Science Foundation in 1979, with a mission of stretngthening research and education in science and engineering throught the U.S. In 1991-92 the U.S. Congress asked other federal agencies supporting academic research to form EPSCoR programs similar to that of NSF.

To date, seven federal agencies have EPSCoR programs: the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Dept. of Defense (DoD), U.S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Dept. of Energy (DOE), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

The National Science Foundation designates states as qualifying for EPSCoR funds. That designation then carries eligibility to apply for any federal agency EPSCoR funds. Each federal agency administers its EPSCoR program as it best contributes to their mission.

NASA's EPSCoR funds are administered by the NASA Space Grant infrastructure.
