  We present the design of a future high-energy high-luminosity electron-hadron collider at RHIC called eRHIC. We plan adding 20 (30) GeV energy recovery linacs to accelerate and to collide polarized and unpolarized electrons with hadrons in RHIC. The center-of-mass energy of eRHIC will range from 30 to 200 GeV. The luminosity exceeding 1034 cm-2s−1 can be achieved in eRHIC using the low-beta interaction region which a 10 mrad crab crossing. A natural staging scenario of step-by-step increases of the electron beam energy by builiding-up of eRHIC's SRF linacs. We report on the eRHIC design and cost estimates for it stages. We discuss the progress of eRHC R&D projects from the polarized electron source to the coherent electron cooling.
