Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative

Abstract

The MURI program is a tri-service Department of Defense (DoD) program that supports extra-mural 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 5 years in length at a cost of $1.25 million each per year.
