NSF 25-545 STEM K-12 is a new $30 million program supporting innovative, multidisciplinary research and development that builds theory and informs education practice in a rapidly evolving technological landscape, with a specific emphasis on artificial intelligence and emerging technologies.
The program supports fundamental, applied, and translational research that enhances STEM teaching and learning across formal and informal K-12 settings, including how AI and other emerging technologies can be effectively leveraged to study and enhance STEM teaching and learning.
Released in September 2025 as part of the coordinated federal response to Executive Order 14277 on advancing AI education for American youth, the program accepts proposals on a rolling basis with no fixed deadline.
Strong fit for education researchers, learning scientists, AI/HCI researchers, and PreK-12 education developers exploring AI tutoring, intelligent tutoring systems, AI-augmented assessments, AI literacy curricula, and AI for STEM teacher preparation.

The NEH Humanities Research Centers on Artificial Intelligence program funds the creation of university-based humanities research centers focused on the ethical, legal, and societal implications of artificial intelligence. Funded centers undertake interdisciplinary humanities-led research that brings ethics, law, history, philosophy, anthropology, religious studies, literature, linguistics, and cultural studies to bear on questions raised by AI systems. Topics include responsible AI governance frameworks, AI and civil rights, AI and labor, cultural impact of generative AI, AI and creative authorship, philosophical foundations of machine reasoning, history of AI thought, and humanistic evaluation of AI safety and alignment. Centers are expected to convene researchers, train new humanities scholars in AI, host public-facing programming, and produce publications and translational tools that inform policy and public understanding. Strong fit for universities seeking to launch sustained interdisciplinary AI humanities research programs in partnership with computer science and other STEM departments.
NSF SaTC 2.0 (Security Privacy and Trust in Cyberspace) is the largest open solicitation for university-led cybersecurity research in the federal portfolio now expanded with AI security as an explicit priority area. The 2.0 reboot added generative AI security open-source software security quantum computing security and supply chain security as topics of interest addressing the bidirectional role of AI as both a cybersecurity threat and a defensive tool. Research awards support adversarial machine learning and attacks on AI systems AI weaponization against people information and systems privacy-preserving machine learning and responsible AI use for detecting and responding to cyber threats. The program funds three award types: Research awards up to $1.2M for four years Education awards up to $500K for three years and Seedling awards up to $300K for two years through Dear Colleague Letters. Proposals are accepted on a recurring annual basis with two windows per year. This is distinct from NSF CyberAICorps which focuses on scholarship and workforce development and from NSF AIMing which focuses on AI formal methods and mathematical reasoning.
The Air Force Research Laboratory Information Directorate's Geospatial Intelligence Processing and Exploitation (GeoPEX) Broad Agency Announcement, FA8750-21-S-7006, is an open two-step BAA soliciting white papers for research, development, integration, test, and evaluation of technologies and techniques to provide geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) in all its forms and from whatever source, including imagery, imagery intelligence, and geospatial data. Explicit focus areas include AI/ML techniques for full-spectrum GEOINT, multi-INT data fusion, cloud-based high-performance computing for geospatial analytics, photogrammetry, computer vision for overhead imagery, automated target recognition, change detection, multi-modal foundation models for geospatial data, and edge AI for tactical reconnaissance. The BAA is open and effective until 30 September 2026 with rolling white paper submission; only white papers are accepted as initial submissions and formal proposals are accepted by invitation only. Strong fit for AI and computer vision performers building geospatial analytics, foundation models, or autonomous reconnaissance tools for Air Force, intelligence community, and combatant command users.
An Office of Legal Counsel opinion issued August 12, 2026 found LSAMP, AGEP, and the Hispanic-Serving Institution track of IUSE unconstitutional in their entirety, ordered five more programs run without race or sex preferences, and held that the congressional suballocations behind them are themselves unconstitutional — freeing the money as residual funds. Here is what it means for institutions holding those awards.
