Young Faculty Award (YFA) 2024
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Young Faculty Award (YFA) program aims to identify and engage rising stars in junior research positions in academia and equivalent positions at non-profit research institutions, particularly those without prior DARPA funding, to expose them to Department
of Defense (DoD) needs and DARPA’s mission to create and prevent technological surprise.
The YFA program will provide high-impact funding to elite researchers early in their careers to develop innovative new research that enables transformative DoD capabilities.
Ultimately, the YFA program is developing the next generations of researchers focused on national security issues.
