Opportunity Summary:

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Computational Mathematics grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number PD 10 1271; CFDA 47.049, Mathematical and Physical Sciences) supports mathematical research in which computation is not just a tool but a central driver of the science. The program focuses on advancing the design, analysis, and implementation of computational approaches, with particular emphasis on numerical methods, algorithms, and symbolic methods. A key feature of proposals in this program is that they do more than apply existing computational techniques; they closely examine and justify the computational approach itself, including why it works, how well it works, and under what conditions it can be trusted.

The scope of projects encouraged by this opportunity is broad. NSF welcomes single-investigator efforts that develop new computational methods and provide rigorous mathematical analysis of their accuracy, stability, efficiency, and limitations. At the same time, the program also encourages interdisciplinary or team-based projects that combine mathematical innovation with real-world implementation, where new methods are created and analyzed and then put to work to model, study, and solve important application problems. In other words, the program values both foundational advances in computational mathematics and research that connects those advances to challenging scientific or engineering questions through implementation and demonstrated computational impact.

This is a discretionary grant program administered by NSF under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning a wide range of applicant entity types may apply, subject to any specific clarifications that would appear in the full program description. The opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching, which reduces barriers for applicants who may not have non-federal funds to contribute.

From a funding standpoint, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $18,000,000 and an award ceiling of $1,200,000 (with a nominal award floor of $1). The solicitation reflects an annual submission cycle, with proposal windows due by 5 p.m. local time, commonly falling between December 1 and December 15 each year. The originally listed closing date was December 15, 2010, with annual due dates thereafter, and the record shows a current closing date of December 15, 2015, with the archive date in January 2016, indicating that this specific posting corresponds to that time period even though the program area itself may continue under updated NSF solicitations.

For applicants looking for full details beyond the summary, NSF provides an additional information link to the program description for PD 10 1271. Technical access issues are directed to NSF’s Grants.gov support at grantsgovsupport@nsf.gov, and the posting indicates that further contact support is available for linking problems with the announcement.
