This document is a research proposal for the University of Miami's Department of Physics, focusing on the theory of elementary particles and fields. The proposal outlines the need for additional funding to support ongoing research in areas such as renormalization theory, supersymmetric field theories, supergravity, string and membrane theory, and galileon models. It highlights the department's history of contributions to these fields and the importance of continued support to advance theoretical physics. The proposal also discusses the broader impact of the research on education and the STEM workforce.
