A unified voice advancing high-impact engineering priorities.
About us
ERVA is a unified voice advancing high-impact engineering priorities. The Engineering Research Visioning Alliance (ERVA) is a neutral convener that helps to identify and develop bold and transformative new engineering research directions, directly supporting the nation’s ability to compete in a rapidly changing global economy. Funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Engineering, ERVA is a diverse, inclusive and engaged partnership that enables an array of voices to impact national research priorities. The five-year initiative convenes, catalyzes and empowers the engineering community to identify nascent opportunities and priorities for engineering-led innovative, high-impact, cross-domain, fundamental research that addresses national, global and societal needs. To accomplish this, we: •Convene, serving as a forum where the voices of engineers, scientists, technologists, ethicists, policymakers and the general public exchange ideas and conceive cutting-edge directions for new areas of engineering research that benefit society; •Facilitate ideation and articulation of compelling engineering research visions that align with national and global challenges; •Catalyze development of programs, policies, and new models of connectivity and collaboration; and •Communicate findings, priorities, and nascent opportunities in engineering research to all stakeholders. Our mission is to identify and develop bold and transformative new engineering research directions and to catalyze the engineering community's pursuit of innovative, high-impact research that benefits society. ERVA is managed by a team representing three founding partners: the Big Ten Academic Alliance (BTAA); the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR)/Institutional Development Award (IDeA) Foundation (EIF); and the University Industry Demonstration Partnership (UIDP).

Congrats to Keivan G. Stassun on being named a 2024 “genius grant” recipient by the MacArthur Foundation Fellows program for his research on star evolution and his work recruiting science students from diverse backgrounds, including neurodiverse students. A professor of physics and astronomy at Vanderbilt University, Stassun is the Thematic Task Force chair for ERVA’s upcoming visioning event, “Engineering Design to Equip a Neurodiverse Workforce.” We are proud to collaborate with Keivan.
