technologies, are interdisciplinary, and carry a high level of risk.
Successful projects may establish new fields of research or provide
insights into previously difficult problems, and must demonstrate the
essential need for W.M. Keck Foundation support.

Internal Deadline: Wednesday, May 20, 2026

NSF 26-500: Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSEC)

The Materials Research Science and Engineering Centers (MRSECs) program
provides sustained support of materials research and education of the
highest quality while addressing fundamental problems in science and
engineering. Each MRSEC addresses research of a scope and complexity
requiring the scale, synergy, and multidisciplinarity provided by a
campus-based research center. The MRSECs support materials research
infrastructure in the United States, promote active collaboration between
universities and other sectors, including industry and international
organizations, and contribute to the development of a national network of
university-based centers in materials research, education, and facilities.
A MRSEC may be located at a single institution, or may involve multiple
institutions in partnership, and is composed of two to three
Interdisciplinary Research Groups (IRGs), each addressing a fundamental
materials science topic aligned with the Division of Materials Research
(DMR).
