Details:
UEF provides funding to proposals and programs whose chief purpose is to advance engineering for the welfare of humanity. Proposals must be consistent with the mission of UEF and priorities for giving, which include programs that focus on the following areas:
- Diversity
- Emerging Technologies
- Engineering Ethics, Safety, Security and Leadership
- Kindergarten – 12th Grade Education
Preference is given to:
- Proposals for programs that are innovative and aim to integrate multiple fields and subspecialties of engineering.
- Proposals for programs that include outreach to engage the community.
- Collaborative proposals submitted on behalf of a group.
- Proposals which specify that grant funds will not be used to offset existing staff salaries.
Eligibility Criteria
Proposals are accepted only from U.S. based organizations classified by the Internal Revenue Service as having 501(c)(3) status. While all proposals meeting the requirements for
- U.S. based organizations having 501(c)(3) status,
- established deadlines, and
- page limitations
will be considered, certain UEF preferences should be understood by proposers:
- Broad-based, interdisciplinary proposals that further the engineering profession as a whole are preferred.
- Multiple-year proposals are welcome, but funding is awarded for a single year only. Proposals for subsequent years follow procedures identical to that of single-year proposals. No commitment for funding of subsequent years of a multiple-year project should be inferred from funding of a prior year.
- Projects must be performed ONLY between January and December of the specific “Grant Year.”
- Projects that are outside “business as usual” of the proposing organization are preferred.
- Technical research proposals and proposals by individuals are seldom accepted.
