During the past six years the National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded 528 grants for projects with multidisciplinary themes. Although most of the engineering-related grants deal with one or several of four themes: emerging engineering concepts, engineering science, basic engineering, and humanities/business/engineering combinations, rich information provided through the NSF data base provides opportunities for additional analyses. This paper classifies the 528 grants in terms of NSF program, collaborative partners, annual trends, geographic location, and funding level. The paper concludes with a review of successful strategies for grant-writing for multidisciplinary engineering projects.
