The Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) is a federal program designed to improve the research capacity of eligible states or regions, making them nationally competitive for future grants. 

 

Utah is not eligible to compete for EPSCoR funding from NSF, DOE, & NASA because the state has surpassed EPSCoR funding level eligibility with these agencies.The state remains eligible for EPSCoR support through USDA. For more information on individual agency awards, please select a link at the top of the page.
