Supports fundamental engineering research to manage energy, water, minerals and material resources. Supports fundamental engineering research to manage energy, water, minerals and material resources. The Energy, Water, and Resource Engineering (EWRE) program supports fundamental research to advance energy, water, and resource management and to safeguard health.
Better use of domestic resources will make U.S. manufacturing, energy and water systems more efficient and secure. EWRE supports research that creates domestic sources of energy, advances water management, and recovers resources using chemical, biological, and geo-physical processes.
The program supports studies on advanced manufacturing that increase the re-use of potentially valuable secondary products by closing energy, water and resource loops. EWRE also supports research on the recycling and management of materials and critical minerals to support technological breakthrough development.
EWRE supports studies on life cycle assessment, materials flow analysis, and AI modeling that incorporate novel metrics to advance the circular economy and bioeconomy. EWRE research encompasses the chemistry, biochemical reactivity, and transport of chemicals, nanomaterials, microbes, and other compounds in water, air, soil, and sediments.
EWRE welcomes ideas that improve fundamental and quantitative understanding of how nanomaterials and nanosystems interact with biological media. The program also supports research on engineered systems that safeguard health through the accurate detection of and rapid response to pathogens and toxins in water, soil and air.
Proposals with a main goal of understanding earth systems are more appropriate for the NSF Directorate for Geosciences. Proposals that focus on buildings and cities are a better fit for the NSF Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation. Partnerships: To speed discovery and innovation, NSF partners with federal agencies, industry, international groups, and others.

NSF's Trailblazer Engineering Impact Award (NSF 26-502) gives a single principal investigator up to $3 million over three years to pursue a high-risk, field-defining project. The July 24 full-proposal deadline is invitation-only — the real contest happened months earlier. Here is how the three-stage structure works, who is eligible, why the no-co-PI rule is the point, and how to position for the next cycle.
Read articleRET Sites close October 14, 2026 — about nine awards from $5.8 million, capped at $600,000 over three years, with a PI eligibility rule that disqualifies most of the people who write outreach proposals. RET Supplements reach the same money for $15,000 a teacher and are not a competition.
Read articleNSF 26-514, 26-515 and 26-518 put $310 million and up to 850 awards on rolling submission with zero per-PI limits, while chemistry rations two proposals a year and materials rations one. The Engineering directorate ran this experiment eight years ago. When NSF tried it in Earth Sciences, proposal volume fell 59 percent. Here is what that history predicts, and how to use a directorate that is not counting your submissions.
