About This Opportunity

This funding opportunity allows UK and US-based researchers to submit a collaborative proposal that will go through a single review process. Proposals can be submitted in any area within the remits of both ESRC and NSF-SBE. The program supports collaborative research between the UK's Economic and Social Research Council and the US National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioural and Economic Sciences Directorate. Applications for ESRC-led proposals are via the UK Research and Innovation Funding Service and will run as consecutive rounds with closing dates. The full economic cost of the UK part of projects can range from £350,000 to £1 million, with ESRC funding 80% of the FEC. ESRC will fund basic, applied and strategic research from any disciplines and on any topics within their remit. Ambitious and novel proposals addressing new concepts and techniques are encouraged, as are those with the potential for significant scientific or societal and economic impact.
