Discovery
Our faculty and scholars are working to drive a deeper understanding of the most important questions related to Earth, climate, and society. This commitment to foundational research sits at the core of the school’s mission.
Discovery Grants
The Stanford Doerr Discovery Grants support fundamental, inquiry-based research for all topic areas within the school. These awards support research that is novel and creative, and aims to advance our understanding of Earth and planetary processes, life on our planet, energy and infrastructure, and societies.
Ten new grants from the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability will support knowledge-driven fundamental research that deepens our understanding of Earth, climate, and society.
Sixteen grants provided by the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability will support work on unproven but potentially transformational ideas to deepen understanding of Earth, climate, and society.
