  3. What is EPSCoR? • State-based capacity-building program - Governance includes State committee - Alignment with State S&T plan - Research driven: Science First! - State co-investment – 20% Cost Sharing (RII Track-1) - Knowledge-based economic development • Multidisciplinary • Multi-institutional (broadly inclusive – diversity) • Close interaction between NSF and the EPSCoR community Multi-faceted State-wide program!

  4. EPSCoR Strategic Objectives • Catalyze key research themes • Activate effective jurisdictional and regional collaborations • Broaden participation • Use EPSCoR for development, implementation, and evaluation of programmatic experiments Strengthen Jurisdictions Capacity for Competitiveness
