The National Science Foundation's Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 Budget Request
is now available online.
The National Science Foundation proposes an FY 2009 investment of $6.85
billion to advance the frontiers of research and education in science
and engineering. The Budget Request includes an increase of $822 million
(14 percent) over the FY 2008 level. These NSF investments in new
knowledge and talent development are vital to advance the frontiers of
discovery and to ensure that America remains a global leader in science
and technology.
The Administration and Congress have conveyed their clear determination
to build on America's history of success in leading-edge discovery and
innovation through increased federal investments in research and
education as evidenced by the President's American Competitiveness
Initiative (ACI) and the America COMPETES Act of 2007.
