NASA EPSCoR: Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research

EPSCoR is designed to expand and enhance the research capability of scientists in states that traditionally have lacked strong university-based research efforts to compete more successfully for a portion of the federal academic R&D budget.

EPSCoR programs exist at five federal agencies: the Departments of Agriculture, Defense, and Energy (USDA, DOD, DOE), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Science Foundation (NSF).
