小行星9312549 这个为期三年的连续奖项是根据“自给自足的研究伙伴关系”计划。它支持基础研究，以增加北卡罗来纳州州立大学的通信和信号处理工业/大学合作研究中心的研究议程。 该中心继续满足I/UCRC计划的更新标准要求。 还提供资金，为一名评估人员提供为期三年的连续奖励，以研究该中心内发生的行业/大学互动。 美国陆军（AMSEL）正在提供资金，以加强正在进行的研究项目，并获得该中心的会员资格。 美国能源部环境恢复和废物管理办公室提供额外资金，以获得该中心的无表决权成员资格。 项目经理建议北卡罗来纳州州立大学：在三年连续奖励的第一年获得58，000美元（包括8，000美元的评估员）;美国陆军（AMSEL）提供的资金为一年提供50，000美元;美国能源部提供的资金为一年提供10，000美元。 在每12个月结束时，项目经理和/或工程教育中心司司长将根据一些更新标准要求审查中心的进展情况，包括以下内容：1）大学/行业互动的发展程度; 2）支持基础的发展程度;以及3）一个强大的研究计划正在发展的程度。 如果评审结果令人满意，计划经理将建议在此持续奖励的下一个期间提供支持。

9312549 Abbott This three-year continuing award is under the "Self-Sufficient Partnership for Research" Program. It supports basic research to augment the research agenda of North Carolina State University's Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Communications and Signal Processing. The Center continues to meet the renewal criteria requirements of the I/UCRC Program. Funding for a three-year continuing award for an evaluator to study the industry/university interaction occurring in the Center is also provided. The U.S. Army (AMSEL) is providing funding to augment ongoing research projects and to obtain a membership in the Center. Additional funding is provided by the U.S. Department of Energy's Environmental Restoration and Waste Management Office to obtain a non-voting membership in the Center. The Program Manager recommends North Carolina State University be: awarded $58,000 for the first year of a three-year continuing award (includes $8,000 for an evaluator); $50,000 for one year with funds provided by the U.S. Army (AMSEL); and $10,000 for one year with funds provided by the U.S. Department of Energy. Near the end of each 12-month period, the Program Manager and/or the Division Director of the Engineering Education Centers Division will review the progress of the Center on a number of renewal criteria requirements, including the following: 1) the extent to which university/industry interaction is developing; 2) the extent to which the support base is developing; and 3) the extent to which a robust research program is developing. If the review is satisfactory, the Program Manager will recommend support for the next period of this continuing award.
