The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) – or the federal “stimulus” package -- includes funding for many programs that support college and university activities, particularly in the areas of research; infrastructure and instrumentation; education and training; and research. We have created this page to keep the NYU community updated with current information relative to ARRA opportunities. Web links to the federal agencies that are responsible for setting guidelines about the distribution of funds are included here.

For additional information about Recovery Act grant funding opportunities, please visit NYU’s Office of Sponsored Programs Recovery website.
