HBCU/MI Programs
Abstract
This Project supports basic research through the Partnered Research Initiative (PRI), the Army's research initiative focused on partnerships with Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority Institutions (HBCU/MI). The PRI Program was established as the next phase of what was previously known as Partnership in Research Transition (PIRT) Program that ended in FY16. The focus of this effort is to enhance programs and capabilities of high-interest scientific and engineering disciplines through innovative research performed in collaboration with Collaborative Technology Alliances and Collaborative Research Alliances (CTA/CRAs). The CTA/CRAs work with Army, industry, and other academic partners to transition research to technology demonstration. In addition, the Centers of Excellence (CoEs) and CTA/CRA partnerships provide opportunities to recruit, educate, and train outstanding students and post-doctoral researchers in science and technology areas relevant to the Army. Work performed in this Project supports key Army needs and is coordinated with one or more Projects in PE 0601104A (University and Industry Research Centers). FY20 realignments are due to financial restructuring in support of Army Modernization Priorities The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy.
