- Description
- The Department of Energy (DOE)'s Office of Nuclear Energy, Science and Technology will hold a workshop for universities on March 4 and 5, 2004, at the Hilton Hotel in Gaithersburg, MD. The workshop will provide U.S. universities the opportunity to become familiar with the research and development (R&D) requirements of the various programs of the Office of Nuclear Energy, Science and Technology. Program plans and schedules including R&D requirements will be presented to attending U.S. universities by representatives of the Generation IV Nuclear Energy Systems Initiative (Gen IV), the Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative (AFCI), and the Nuclear Hydrogen Initiative (NHI). DOE and laboratory program leads will present the R&D needs of these nuclear energy research programs. Ample opportunity will be provided for questions and constructive dialogue on these research needs. The workshop will feature breakout sessions in fourteen research areas of the programs. All breakout sessions will be repeated the second day to allow individuals to attend more topics. The preliminary agenda for the workshop is available at http://www.energetics.com/nemarch04.html. Following the workshop, a solicitation is expected to be issued in early April 2004. The solicitation, which will be open to all U.S. universities, will provide an opportunity for universities to participate in these research initiatives. Applications in response to the solicitation will be due in May 2004 with awards scheduled for September 2004. Funding for this solicitation will be from the budgets of the Gen IV, AFCI, and NHI programs and will total approximately $3.7 million. The university research projects are expected to be for one to three years. Workshop Attendance: A pre-registration site has been set up for the workshop at the following web address: http://www.energetics.com/nemarch04.html . Attendees should pre-register for the workshop by February 25, 2004 to assist DOE in planning for seating and other arrangements.
