USGS Seeks Earthquake Hazards Research Proposals

      Application Deadline: June 4, 2026
***Please Forward to anyone that may be interested!  Thank You! ***

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is currently soliciting project proposals for Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 grants on earthquake hazards science and is authorized to award up to $5 million. Interested researchers can apply online at the following link under funding Opportunity Number G27AS00075. Please review the application instructions found in the GRANTS.GOV solicitation for more information.

The grants offered through the USGS Earthquake Hazards Program (EHP) are a long-standing effort that contributes to the advancement of earthquake research. The Earthquake Hazards Program encourages submission of new ideas that will provide more timely and accurate earthquake information, better characterization of earthquake sources, and a reduction in uncertainty for earthquake-hazard and risk assessments.  USGS also seeks proposals that will help to mitigate earthquake losses and better inform the public about earthquakes and earthquake safety, such as earthquake early warning or other scientific efforts that will lead to reduced risk. The complete list of FY2027 EHP science research priorities is included in the grants solicitation found on HERE as well as the EHP External Grants website.

A list of previously funded projects and reports  can be found on the USGS EHP external research support website.
