Malign Foreign Talent Recruitment Program Certification
As of June 7, 2025, the National Science Foundation (NSF) ‘in accordance with the NSF Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide (PAPPG) Chapter II.D.1.e(ii)’ is requiring that principal investigators (PI’s) and co-Principal Investigators (co-PIs) certify that they are not party to a Malign Foreign Talent Recruitment Program (MFTRP) on an annual basis. The research community is reminded that ‘individuals who are currently a party to a MFTRP are not eligible to serve as senior/key personnel on any NSF proposal or on any NSF award made on or after May 20, 2024’, and UIC prohibits participation in MFTRPs. Please visit Research.gov to complete the required MFTRP certification. There is no organizational certificate requirement.

Export Controls
The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issued Syria General License (GL) 25 on May 23, 2025, authorizing transactions otherwise prohibited by the Syrian Sanctions Regulations. This license authorizes a broad range of activities previously prohibited under the Syria Sanctions Regulations (31 C.F.R. part 542), marking a departure from the comprehensive restrictions on that country. Please contact the Export Controls Director if you would like to interact with Syrian institutions for academic collaboration or education activities.
