Marine Corps University can accept outside research grants for its faculty's scientific, literary, or educational work, under the same competitive-grant, nonprofit-source, dedicated-account, and appropriations rules as the Naval War College.

(a) Acceptance of Research Grants. The Secretary of the Navy may let the President of the Marine Corps University accept qualifying research grants — but only if the work funded will be done by a professor or instructor at one of the schools that make up the University, for a scientific, literary, or educational purpose. (b) Qualifying Grants. A qualifying grant is one awarded competitively by an entity described in subsection (c), for a research project with a scientific, literary, or educational purpose. (c) Entities From Which Grants May Be Accepted. Grants may only come from a corporation, fund, foundation, educational institution, or similar organization whose main purpose is scientific, literary, or educational. (d) Administration of Grant Funds. The Secretary must set up an account to manage grant money received under this section. The President of Marine Corps University uses that money according to the applicable regulations and the grant's own terms and conditions. (e) Related Expenses. Subject to limits set in appropriations laws, money appropriated for Marine Corps University may pay the University's costs of applying for and pursuing these research grants. (f) Regulations. The Secretary must write regulations to administer this section.
