Description

Through agreement between the US Department of Defense (US DoD) and the Australian Department of Defence (Defence), the Australian Government will offer grant funding to Australian higher-education providers (universities) that have been successful in a joint Australia-US submission to the US Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program. AUSMURI complements MURI, which the US DoD administers. AUSMURI supports Australian universities that are part of successful bids in the US MURI process. Australian Government funding is provided through AUSMURI grants for projects on designated topics determined by Defence to have high potential for significant future defence capability.

We expect to fund only one new AUSMURI grant each year. However, in any year, we may designate more than one AUSMURI topic where the research is deemed a priority for future defence capabilities.
