Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative
Abstract
The Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program is a tri-service Department of Defense (DoD) program that supports extramural teams whose basic research efforts intersect more than one traditional science and engineering discipline. A multidisciplinary team effort, usually from several collaborating universities, can accelerate research progress in areas particularly suited to this approach by cross fertilization of ideas, hasten the transition of basic research findings to practical applications, and help to train students in science, technology and/or engineering in areas of importance to DoD. MURI programs are typically five years in length at a cost of $1.25 million each per year.
