Institute of Physics Accepting Applications for Public Engagement Grant Scheme - GrantFinder Institute of Physics Accepting Applications for Public Engagement Grant Scheme Institute of Physics Accepting Applications for Public Engagement Grant Scheme Funding for physics-based activities that meaningfully engage with whole family groups Grants are available for individuals and organisations across the UK and Ireland to deliver physics-based projects that meaningfully engage whole family groups and aim to improve people’s relationship with physics.
Through the Public Engagement Grant Scheme, grants of between £500 and £4,000 are available for projects targeting families with young people under the age of 16 who identify with one or more of the following groups: Young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. Black Caribbean young people.
Proposed projects should improve people’s relationship with physics, demonstrate how they will meaningfully engage with whole family groups, be free for participants to access, and have physics at its heart. Priority will be given to projects that: Link with physicists and physics institutions. Show the impacts of physics on society rather than just teaching core physics.
Have the potential for lasting impact. Combat stereotypes about physics, physicists, and physics careers, and include positive, inclusive messaging about them. Show evidence of elements of co-creation or input from the target audience.
Provide evidence of public engagement best practice. Show that the activity is dependent on IOP funding, or that IOP funding adds a significant and distinct element. Include a project plan and project costs that are clearly structured and optimised for the project’s success.

NSF 26-523 folds 12 core physics programs and three cross-cutting ones into a single solicitation with $180 million and roughly 300 awards. Proposals are accepted anytime, but AMO-Experiment and Gravitational Physics still target November 25 and QIS targets December 8. Cost sharing is prohibited, indirect cost rates are now a tiebreaker, and NSF reserves the right to phase out long-duration efforts after comparative review.

Read articleDOE's FY2026 Office of Science open-call solicitation (DE-FOA-0003600) makes roughly $500 million available across about 500 awards of $50,000 to $5 million — across computing, physics, chemistry, biology, fusion, and isotopes — with a rolling window that stays open through September 30, 2026. Unlike a targeted NOFO, it lets investigators propose almost anything within the agency's mission. Here is how the open call actually works, why it is chronically underused, and how to write into it.
