Opportunity Information: Apply for ST TPC 19 001

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), through its Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) Office of University Programs (OUP), announced a discretionary funding opportunity for a Terrorism Prevention and Counterterrorism Research (TPCR) Center of Excellence (COE). The intent of this competition is to fund one accredited U.S. college or university to serve as the lead institution for a multi-university consortium focused on research and development that supports terrorism prevention and counterterrorism mission needs. The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means DHS expects an active partnership with the recipient during project execution, including substantial federal involvement in shaping, coordinating, or overseeing the work.

This opportunity is specifically for a Center Lead applicant, meaning the applying institution is expected to organize and manage a coordinated center structure rather than proposing only a single stand-alone research project. As the center lead, the awardee would generally be responsible for building and managing the consortium of participating universities, providing overall leadership and governance, coordinating research efforts across partner institutions, and ensuring program integration and performance. While the notice does not list specific technical topics in the excerpt provided, the overall activity category is science and technology and other research and development, aligned to terrorism prevention and counterterrorism research priorities.

In parallel, DHS OUP also issued a separate Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for institutions that want to submit single project proposals to be considered as partners within the same TPCR COE. That companion solicitation is identified as DHS-19-ST-061-TPCR-Partner (also referenced under CFDA 97.061) and is posted on Grants.gov. The key point is that DHS may select individual research projects from applications submitted under either the Center Lead NOFO or the Center Partner NOFO. Those selected projects can be included in the final COE portfolio regardless of which institution ultimately wins the lead role, which signals that DHS is building the center around the strongest set of proposed projects and capabilities, not only around the lead applicant's internal plans.

Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and applicants must be accredited U.S. colleges and universities. The awarding agency is DHS, Office of Procurement Operations - Grants Division. The Funding Opportunity Number is ST TPC 19 001, and the assistance listing (CFDA) is 97.061. The opportunity was created on July 10, 2019, with an original application deadline of September 13, 2019 (with no deadline extension indicated in the provided text). DHS anticipated making one award, with an award ceiling of $3,650,000, meaning the maximum funding for the lead cooperative agreement would not exceed that amount.

Overall, this NOFO is designed to establish a university-led, DHS-aligned research center that can coordinate a portfolio of terrorism prevention and counterterrorism R&D activities across a consortium, while also allowing strong standalone projects submitted through the companion partner solicitation to be pulled into the center’s final research lineup.
