This is a funding opportunity announcement set aside for The American Society for Engineering Education and The National Academies/National Research Council. The Naval Research Laboratory is announcing a funding opportunity to provide for recruitment, evaluation, and selection (in collaboration with NRL) of Post-Doctoral Research Associates/Fellows (Scientists and/or Engineers) of exceptional promise and ability who will be given the opportunity to pursue research opportunities, largely of their own choosing, that are compatible with the announced research interests of the Naval Research Laboratory. In collaboration with the Naval Research Laboratory, the research organization will be required to provide administrative support that involves acting as the liaison between the participating post-docs and the government facility at which they are assigned to perform their proposed research. Administrative support functions include payment of stipends, travel, etc. and facilitating the assignments of the selected candidates. A cooperative agreement is the funding agreement that will be awarded. This cooperative agreement will have a performance period of 1 January 2017 through 31 December 2021. Participating post-docs must have both an offer and a tenure date of no later than 31 December 2020.
