Just a slight clarification/correction/question: as far as I can tell, M in MURI is for multidisciplinary. That means the DoD is seeking interdisciplinary research (and maybe intra-university collaboration), not explicitly inter-university work -- is this correct?

There may be separate multidisciplinary initiatives, but "Multi" in MURI definitely stands for inter university initiatives. All the MURI grants I have seen (not many and long ago to be honest) were multiple universities and one area of research.

It’s “multidisciplinary”, but funded programs are almost always large multi-institutional teams https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/295323...
