NOTE: MTV and ETI are mission-focused consortia that have been directed by DNN R&D to address specific focus areas that are aligned with the DNN R&D mission space. NSSC II (currently being re-competed) is a non-mission-focused consortium with a broad focus on nuclear science and engineering and a primary goal to provide a pipeline of students to the national laboratories.
