The FY2026 Department of Defense Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program supports basic research in science and engineering at U.S. institutions of higher education, with emphasis on multidisciplinary research where more than one traditional discipline interacts. The Army, Navy, and Air Force basic research offices are seeking applications across 22 topic areas including artificial intelligence and autonomy, information sensing and processing, and systems manipulation. MURI grants typically provide $1.25 million to $1.5 million per year for three years with option to extend two additional years. Approximately $170 million in total funding is available annually across all topics. The program is administered through the Office of Naval Research (ONR), Army Research Office (ARO), and Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR).

Launched in 2019 under NSF's Directorate for Technology, Innovation and Partnerships, the program operates in two phases: Phase 1 awards are up to $750,000, with successful teams advancing to larger Phase 2 awards. Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education and nonprofit or for-profit organizations. Track I and Track K focus on specific high-priority topics announced each funding cycle.

CISE Future Computing Research (Future CoRe, NSF 25-543) is the National Science Foundation's core foundational research program for computer and information science, and it is the single most accessible NSF pathway for investigator-initiated AI and machine learning research. The solicitation spans three participating divisions - Computing and Communication Foundations, Information and Intelligent Systems, and Computer and Network Systems - which together cover machine learning theory, algorithms, foundation model architectures, natural language processing, computer vision, robotics and intelligent systems, and the systems and hardware substrate that large-scale AI training and inference depend on. Awards run up to $1 million over four years, with typical projects landing between $150,000 and $250,000 per year. Unlike NSF's large center-scale AI competitions, Future CoRe funds single investigators and small teams, which makes it the realistic target for a faculty member starting or sustaining a generative AI research agenda. The program has two annual submission windows: the first Thursday in February and the second Thursday in September, with the September 2026 target date falling on 10 September 2026. Proposals may indicate the extent to which generative AI was used in preparing the proposal, per NSF guidance.
