The National Science Foundation (NSF) is offering a grant opportunity titled "Engineering Design and Systems Engineering" aimed at advancing fundamental research in design science and systems science. This program encourages proposals that explore the multidisciplinary nature of design, focusing on the creation of new knowledge about engineered artifacts, which can include devices, processes, and systems, among others. The NSF seeks competitive proposals that are grounded in theory and demonstrate potential improvements in design, with an emphasis on rigorous assessment of research methods across various domains. Proposals are accepted on a rolling basis, and interested applicants can reach out to NSF grants.gov support at grantsgovsupport@nsf.gov for assistance.
