Notification of policy, requirements and prohibitions of foreign talent recruitment programs 

The Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) and Science Act of 2022 requires that research funded through federal agencies such as the NSF and NIH disclose all participation and activities involving foreign talent recruitment programs. The policy strictly prohibits participation in any malign foreign talent recruitment program (MFTRP). USC faculty are encouraged to review details of this policy on the Office of Sponsored Awards Management website.
