Opportunity Information: Apply for N00178 25 0001

The Naval Engineering Education Consortium (NEEC) Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for Fiscal Year 2025 (FY25) is a U.S. Navy research grant opportunity issued by the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWC Dahlgren), on behalf of the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Warfare Centers. The program is focused on science and technology and other research and development efforts that support naval engineering priorities, with the intent of leveraging university-led research capabilities to address Navy technical needs. This solicitation is structured as a Broad Agency Announcement, meaning it is organized around topic areas of interest rather than a single tightly specified project, and applicants are expected to propose innovative research approaches that align with the listed Navy needs.

Eligibility is limited strictly to colleges and universities, including both public/state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education. The funding instrument is a grant, and the opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding. The assistance listing is associated with CFDA/Assistance Listing number 12.300, which is commonly used for Department of Defense research and development assistance programs. The notice indicates an award ceiling of $450,000, setting an upper limit on the amount that can be awarded per grant under this announcement, although the actual award size would depend on the proposed scope, merit, and available funding.

Applicants should pay close attention to the specific research topics and submission instructions referenced in the official BAA document titled "BAANEECFY25final," which is provided under the opportunity's Related Documents. Those topic descriptions are central to determining whether a proposed effort is responsive, since the announcement states that NSWC Dahlgren is soliciting research "of interest" in support of NEEC and that the topic list is contained in that document. In practical terms, a competitive submission will clearly map its objectives, methods, expected outcomes, and deliverables to one or more of the stated topics, and it will explain why the proposed research is relevant to NAVSEA Warfare Center missions.

Key administrative details include the Funding Opportunity Number N00178 25 0001, with NSWC Dahlgren identified as the issuing agency. The opportunity was created on 2024-09-10, and the original closing date is 2024-10-30, meaning proposals must be submitted by that deadline to be considered under the original schedule. The posting also indicates "ExpectedAwards:" but does not provide a number, so prospective applicants should not assume a particular quantity of awards will be made and should rely on the BAA document for any additional context on anticipated funding levels, evaluation criteria, formatting requirements, and any constraints such as period of performance, cost principles, or reporting expectations.

Overall, this FY25 NEEC BAA is a university-only Navy research grant opportunity intended to generate applied and exploratory R&D aligned with NAVSEA Warfare Center needs, with awards up to $450,000 and topic guidance provided in the referenced BAA document.
