Opportunity description

The Methodology, Measurement, and Statistics (MMS) Program is an interdisciplinary program in the Directorate for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences that supports the development of innovative analytical and statistical methods and models for those sciences. MMS seeks proposals that are methodologically innovative, grounded in theory, and have potential utility for multiple fields within the social, behavioral, and economicsciences. As part of its larger portfolio, the MMS Program partners with a consortium of federal statistical agencies to support research proposals that further the production and use of official statistics. The MMS Program provides support through a number of different funding mechanisms. The following mechanisms are addressed in this solicitation:
  • Regular Research Awards
  • Awards for conferences and community-development activities
  • Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement (DDRI) Grants
  • Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Supplements
MMS also supports Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) awards. Please see the CAREER Program Web Site for more informationabout this activity.

Who can apply

  • Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)

*Who May Serve as PI: Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement Awards: DDRI proposals must be submitted with a principal investigator (PI) and a co-principal investigator (co-PI). The PI must be the advisor of the doctoral student or another faculty member at the U.S. institution where the doctoral student is enrolled. The co-PI must be the doctoral student whose dissertation research will be supported. For all other types of awards, there are no restrictions or limits.

Submitting your application

To apply, head to the official Grants.gov listing — that is where registration and submission happen. Always re-check the closing date there, as agencies can revise it.

Official Grants.gov listing

Grant details are pulled from the public-domain Grants.gov feed and are offered for general information. VolunteerBadge is independent of Grants.gov and all federal agencies; the official listing is always the authoritative source.

Put your grant to work — with vetted volunteers.

Many federal awards expect screened volunteers and staff. VolunteerBadge handles that for $5 per check, with identity verification built in.
