Opportunity Information: Apply for NIJ 2019 15143
The Graduate Research Fellowship in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (GRF-STEM), FY 2019 is a discretionary grant program run by the Department of Justice, National Institute of Justice (NIJ). Its purpose is to fund doctoral-level research in STEM fields when that research has clear relevance to preventing and controlling crime or to supporting the fair and impartial administration of criminal justice in the United States. Rather than funding students directly, NIJ makes awards to accredited colleges and universities, and those institutions use the funds to support the doctoral students they sponsor as fellows while the students complete dissertation research tied to criminal justice needs.
Eligibility is limited to public/state-controlled and private institutions of higher education. The key requirement is that the institution applies on behalf of a specific doctoral student (or students) whose degree program is in a STEM discipline and whose proposed dissertation has demonstrable implications for crime and justice in the U.S. In practical terms, the STEM requirement and the criminal justice relevance requirement must both be satisfied: the student must be in a STEM doctoral program, and the dissertation topic must connect in an identifiable, defensible way to issues like crime prevention, crime control, system fairness, or the effective and impartial operation of justice institutions.
The award structure is designed as a fellowship-style support package administered through the degree-granting institution. NIJ provides up to three years of support that can be used over a five-year window, which offers flexibility if a student’s research timeline includes fieldwork, lab work, data access delays, or other dissertation-related milestones that do not align neatly with three consecutive academic years. For each year of support, NIJ provides two main funding components to the institution: a $35,000 stipend that can be applied toward the student’s salary and related costs, and up to $15,000 that can be used for tuition and fees as well as research expenses and other related costs. Taken together, that is up to $50,000 per supported year per fellow, with the institution responsible for administering the funds in accordance with grant requirements and allowable cost rules.
For FY 2019, the funding opportunity number is NIJ 2019 15143 and the CFDA number is 16.560. The opportunity was created on January 17, 2019, with an original closing date of April 17, 2019. NIJ anticipated making about 14 awards under this solicitation. The listed award ceiling is $2,000,000, indicating the maximum size of an individual award under the program, though actual award amounts would depend on the number of fellows supported and the specific budget submitted by the applicant institution within the program’s per-year fellowship limits.
Overall, GRF-STEM FY 2019 is meant to build a pipeline of STEM-trained researchers whose doctoral work produces knowledge, methods, or tools that can be applied to real criminal justice challenges. It supports rigorous dissertation research through a structured package of stipend, tuition, and research funding, while keeping the university as the official applicant and grant recipient responsible for managing the fellowship on the student’s behalf.Apply for NIJ 2019 15143
