NSF's E-CORE program funds up to 15 awards of up to $10 million over four years to help EPSCoR jurisdictions build the infrastructure cores — administration, cyberinfrastructure, workforce pipelines — that make research competitive. It's an institution-level award, not a lab grant, and the July 21, 2026 deadline rewards a fundamentally different proposal than most NSF competitions. Here's how it works.
