NASA Solicitation and Proposal Integrated Review and Evaluation System Supporting research in science and technology is an important part of NASA's overall mission. NASA solicits this research through the release of various announcements in a wide range of disciplines. NASA uses a peer review process to evaluate and select proposals submitted in response to these announcements.
Researchers can help NASA achieve national science and technology objectives by submitting proposals and conducting awarded projects. MUREP Partnership Learning Annual Notification (MPLAN) Awards NASA’s Office of STEM Engagement’s Minority University Research and Education Project (MUREP) is seeking proposals from minority-serving institutions (MSIs) to promote research collaboration with NASA mission directorates.
Funding up to $50,000 per award supports teams from universities, colleges, and community colleges designated as MSIs to develop innovative ideas and action plans for commercialization.

NASA SBIR 2026 Phase I Solicitation (Human Systems) is a grant from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) that funds small businesses developing innovative technologies with strong commercial potential in the area of human space systems. NASA's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program is a competitive, phased program supporting R&D with potential for commercialization, and Phase I awards establish the technical merit and feasibility of proposed research. The Human Systems focus area includes technologies supporting crew health, performance, habitation, and safety for space exploration missions. Phase I awards provide up to $150,000 in funding. Eligible applicants must be for-profit small business concerns registered in the United States. The application deadline is May 21, 2026.
NASA Space Launch System (SLS) Cubesat Opportunities on Artemis III, IV, and V Missions is sponsored by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) - Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate (ESDMD). This opportunity provides CubeSat developers with a chance to fly their small satellites as secondary payloads on the Artemis III, IV, and V missions, supporting lunar exploration and related space technology.
NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship Program is a grant from NVIDIA providing up to $60,000 per award to PhD students conducting research that advances accelerated computing and its applications. Now in its 25th year, the program invites nominations from doctoral students pushing the boundaries of artificial intelligence, robotics, autonomous vehicles, and related fields. Recipients receive not only research funding but also access to NVIDIA technology, products, and engineering expertise, along with a mandatory in-person summer internship. Students are nominated by their faculty advisors and selected based on academic achievement and research area alignment.
NASA STRIDE (Science Transport and Robotic Innovation for Deployment and Exploration) is a grant program from NASA that solicits proposals from U.S. industry to conduct design studies of advanced robotic surface and aerial mobility systems with payload transportation and deployment capability for Mars surface operations. The program supports innovation in robotic mobility systems that could enable future Mars science missions. U.S.-based universities and nonprofit research organizations may also be eligible per the grant record. The application deadline for this cycle was March 31, 2026.
CalSEED Concept Award is a grant from the California Energy Commission that provides $150,000 in funding to early-stage clean energy innovators in California.

Eligible technology areas rotate each cycle and have included battery recycling and reuse, long-duration energy storage, medium- and heavy-duty vehicle electrification, industrial electrification, and advanced EV charging. Applicants must be located in California, have under $1 million in private funding, and propose innovations that benefit California ratepayers. Concept Award winners also receive professional development resources and access to accelerator programs, and may compete for a subsequent $450,000 Prototype Award.
NASA shifted its SBIR/STTR program from a single-cycle solicitation to a Broad Agency Announcement on April 17, 2026 — valid through September 30, 2027 — with subtopics released in rolling appendices. The structural change ends 41 years of predictable January-to-March deadlines and forces space startups to rebuild their proposal pipelines around continuous monitoring rather than annual sprints.
Read articleOn April 17, 2026, NASA released a SBIR/STTR Broad Agency Announcement valid through Sept 30, 2027 — replacing the legacy annual solicitation cycle with rolling appendices. The first two appendices closed May 21. A complete strategic analysis for space-tech founders adapting to the new model.
