CAREER: The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program is a Foundation-wide activity that offers the National Science Foundation's most prestigious awards in support of early-career faculty who who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization. Early career is defined as tenure-track (or equivalent) Assistant Professor (or equivalent) with funding available for five years at a minimum of $400,000 to $500,000 depending on Directorate. See the UA's CAREER Preparation Program for additional information on developing your CAREER proposal.

For budgetary reasons, NSA is unable to fund proposals for new projects during Fiscal Year 2018. Consequently, they are not soliciting or accepting proposals at this time. Questions can be directed to MSPgrants@nsa.gov. They hope to return to serve the mathematics community in Fiscal Year 2019. For NSA, young investigators are investigators within ten years of receiving their Ph.D and do not have any other federal funding. $20,000 is available per year for two years. Sponsored Program Office approval is required for submission.

DOE Office of Science Early Career Research Program, supports the development of individual research programs of outstanding scientists early in their careers and stimulates research careers in the disciplines supported by DOE OS. DOE OS defines "early career" as those within 10 years of having received their Ph.D. and are untenured Assistant or Associate Professors on a tenure track. There can be no co-Principal Investigators. Funding is available at a minimum of $150,000 per year for five years.

The YIP is included as part of the Army Research Office Broad Agency Announcement FY17-FY22. The objective of the YIP is to attract to Army research outstanding young university faculty members, to support their research, and to encourage their teaching and research careers. The program is open to U.S. citizens, Nationals, and resident aliens holding tenure-track positions at U.S. universities and colleges, who have held their graduate degrees (Ph.D. or equivalent) for fewer than five years at the time of application. YIP awards are generally for $120,000 per year for 3 years. To view the BAA, select this link and view solicitation number W911NF-17-S-0002 (note any modifications).
