The Office of Naval Research (ONR) sponsors research in multiple research areas. Key research initiatives include core basic and applied research programs executed by ONR Program Officers, research performed at naval laboratories, and additional specialized initiatives (university research initiatives and the Young Investigator Program).

The ONR Basic Research Challenge (BRC) program was established to competitively select and fund promising research programs in new areas not addressed by the current basic research program. The program stimulates new, high-risk basic research projects in multidisciplinary and departmental collaborative efforts, and funds topics that foster leading edge science and attract new principal investigators and organizations.

The University Research Initiative (URI) seeks to improve the quality of defense research conducted by universities and supports the education of engineers and scientists in disciplines critical to national defense needs. The initiative is a collection of three specialized research programs performed by academic research institutions.

The Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) supports university research infrastructure essential to high quality Navy relevant research. The research instrumentation that is necessary to carry out cutting-edge research.

The Department of Defense Multidisciplinary University Initiative (MURI) efforts involve teams of researchers investigating high priority topics and opportunities that intersect more than one traditional technical discipline. For many military problems this multidisciplinary approach serves to stimulate innovations, accelerate research progress and expedite transition of results into naval applications.
