Campus Cyberinfrastructure (CC*)
Funding Agency:
- National Science Foundation
The Campus Cyberinfrastructure (CC*) program invests in coordinated campus-level cyberinfrastructure improvements, innovation, integration, and engineering for science applications and distributed research projects. Projects that help overcome disparities in cyber-connectivity associated with geographic location, and thereby advance the geography of innovation and enable populations based in these locales to become more nationally competitive in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) research and education are particularly encouraged. Science-driven requirements are the primary motivation for any proposed activity.
CC* awards will be supported in five program areas:
- Area (1) Data Driven Networking Infrastructure (Campus or Region),
- Area (2) Computing and the Computing Continuum (Campus or Region),
- Area (3) Network Integration and Applied Innovation (Small or Large),
- Area (4) Data Storage and Digital Archives, (Campus or Region), and
- Area (5) Strategy (Campus or Region).
Standard Grant or Continuing Grant
Estimated Number of Awards: 32 to 55
The estimated number of awards per program area is as follows: 8-13 Networking Infrastructure awards; 8-16 Computing and the Computing Continuum awards; 5-8 Network Integration and Applied Innovation awards; 7-10 Data Storage awards; and 4-8 Strategy awards.
$15,000,000 to $20,000,000 pending availability of funds and quality of proposals received.
