The Staff Research Program by the Army Research Office (ARO) aims to help their scientific staff improve their skills by doing basic research with external institutions. This research should advance knowledge in engineering, physical, life, and information sciences. ARO scientists will work with these institutions but won't be the main lead on any projects.
Who it's for: This grant is for institutions that want to collaborate with ARO scientific staff on research projects. The research should align with both the institution's and ARO's interests in engineering, physical, life, and information sciences.
