FACULTY AWARDS FOR RESEARCH (FAR)

The primary strategy for implementing the FAR Awards for research is through a competitive peer review and merit selection process in collaboration with the Strategic Enterprises, NASA Installations and JPL. Other strategies include: (1) Have discipline-related personnel at Headquarters and the NASA Installations and JPL be responsible for serving as points-of-contact for faculty interested in pursuing an award in this category; (2) Place responsibility for conducting the technical evaluations and making recommendations to Headquarters for funding consideration on the interested NASA Installation or JPL; (3) Provide funding to the nominating NASA Installation or JPL to make FAR Awards; and (4) Hold the NASA Installation or JPL responsible for managing the awards.
