Grant Opportunities for Academic Liaison with Industry (GOALI) Proposals - Directorate for Engineering (ENG) | NSF - U.S. National Science Foundation Grant Opportunities for Academic Liaison with Industry (GOALI) Proposals View image credit & caption The U.S. National Science Foundation Grant Opportunities for Academic Liaison with Industry (GOALI) proposals seek to promote collaboration between academic institutions and industry.
Funding through the GOALI proposal type can be requested two different ways: In conjunction with a regular proposal submitted to a standing program of NSF. As a supplemental funding request to an existing NSF-funded award. More information and instructions for GOALI proposals are in the NSF Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide (PAPPG) .
GOALI proposals should focus on research that addresses interests shared by academic researchers and industrial partners. The research should build scientific and engineering foundations that enable future breakthrough technologies and address critical industry needs. Industry involvement assures that the research is industrially relevant.
Principal investigators are expected to integrate their research objectives with educational and industrial needs. GOALI provides opportunities for: Collaborative research projects between interdisciplinary university-industry teams in which the industry research participant provides critical research expertise, without which the project's likelihood for success would be diminished.
Projects that allow faculty, postdoctoral fellows and students to conduct research and gain experience in an industrial setting. Projects that facilitate industrial scientists and engineers bringing industry's perspective and integrative skills to academia. NSF encourages research and education projects that involve faculty from different academic departments or institutions collaborating with one or more industrial partners.
Proposals may include an additional partner, such as a national laboratory or a nonprofit organization.
The industrial participant cannot use or receive any NSF funds on a GOALI award, except for small businesses that are not currently funded by the NSF Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) programs and meet these requirements: Must be a small business (fewer than 500 employees) located in the U.S. At least 50% of the company's equity must be owned by U.S. citizens or permanent residents.

TCUP lists eight funding tracks and roughly $10.3M a year, but the October 14, 2026 deadline applies to only three of them — CHAI, Pre-TI, and TCUP Partnerships — and each carries a restriction that disqualifies most applicants. Here is the track-by-track math.

One proposal per organization. And NSF is not buying you GPUs — it funds the coordination, the workforce and the faculty training, while the compute has to come from partners you have to already have.
Read articleAs of September 12, NSF had obligated $6.3 billion across 6,200 grants versus $8.1 billion and 8,600 last year. AHRQ has made 61 awards. Judge Allison Burroughs ordered the government to report by September 28 on whether IES will obligate $180 million before it expires. Here is what actually happens to the money on October 1 — and what it means for your FY2027 application.
