Kentucky EPSCoR Home Page

The Kentucky EPSCoR Program builds statewide infrastructure that promotes national research competitiveness. Kentucky’s scientists and engineers have won awards from all of the federal EPSCoR programs for which the state is eligible. The Statewide Program’s impact is far reaching. Hundreds of faculty and students at 14 colleges and universities in the Commonwealth have participated in EPSCoR projects. Moreover, the EPSCoR Program has channeled over $400 Million in R&D funding (the majority being federal funding) to the Commonwealth's academic community since its inception.

Kentucky’s EPSCoR Program impacts the State’s science and technology competitiveness through:

	Strengthening the capability of researchers and institutions in the Commonwealth
	Improving the quality of Research and Development
	Developing the ability of researchers and institutions to compete for non-EPSCoR Federal, State and private sector R&D funding
	Aiding undergraduate education and the private sector through technology transfer and technological improvements
