SSEC2022
SSEC2022 Goals
The goal of SSEC2022 is to stimulate and support new and innovative approaches for conducting research at the UW-Madison Space Science and Engineering Center (SSEC). SSEC2022 is open to all SSEC staff and provides seed funding for five major SSEC2022 priorities:
- Pursuing new avenues of research and applications
- Establishing strategic partnerships
- Temporary support of mission critical but underfunded capabilities
- Supporting major infrastructure improvements
- Support capacity building
SSEC2022 will be competed on an annual basis and funding will be provided for one year. The minimum annual award will be $25,000 and the maximum annual award will be $250,000. The SSEC Transition Fund will be used to support SSEC2022 with annual budgets expected to be $2M, $1.5M, and $1M over the next three years. Research proposals that include collaboration with UW-Madison faculty are encouraged.
