CEACSE Funding Opportunity Overview
The Center of Excellence in Applied Computational Science and Engineering (CEACSE) is issuing a call for research proposals for FY 2024. The primary goal of this program is to enable strategic development of new capabilities and extramural projects in the area of Computational Sciences.
The full application deadline is Oct. 31, 2022 at 5 p.m. Eastern Time. All submissions will be electronic. Application materials are below

Proposals will be peer reviewed by domain experts from other 4-year universities and scored based on scientific merit, capacity building, and strategic excellence. We will be looking for proposals that fulfill the following three key goals:
- Relate to modeling and simulation, big data, machine learning, and/or analytics
- Will result in high-impact, peer-reviewed publications
- Can “seed” larger, long-term extramural funding
There are nine priority areas for funding, aligned with the research areas of the SimCenter: Energy & Smart Grid; Cybersecurity & Cyber-physical Systems; Climate, Weather & Environmental Systems; Extreme Environment Technologies; Health & Biological Systems; Modeling & Simulation of Advanced Materials; Modeling & Simulation of Quantum Systems; and High-Performance Computing & Algorithms. Projects outside these areas are eligible for funding, provided they are oriented toward the key goals listed above. Proposals that leverage community assets/partners are strongly encouraged.
UTC professors at all tenured and tenure-earning ranks may apply as PIs and co-PIs. Non-tenure-track faculty, staff, and postdoctoral associates may apply as co-PIs. The maximum individual award amount is $100,000. Voluntary cost share is allowed but not required, and proposals with cost share will not be evaluated more favorably than others. The start date for all projects will be July 1, 2023. The budget period will be 12 months (July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024).
