Centers of Research Excellence in Science and Technology
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has posted a grant opportunity titled "Centers of Research Excellence in Science and Technology". This grant aims to enhance the research capabilities of Minority-serving institutions (MSIs) by establishing centers that integrate education and research. The grant focuses on promoting the development of new knowledge, enhancing research productivity, and increasing the presence of historically underrepresented students in STEM disciplines. The grant requires evidence-based and innovative strategies to address broadening participation and workforce development issues. Successful proposals are expected to achieve national research competitiveness, broaden participation in STEM, and generate sustained funding from federal, state, and private-sector sources. The grant provides multi-year support for institutions that demonstrate a strong research base. Phase I and Phase II projects are required, with Phase I providing funding for five years of research on a specific NSF-supported topic. Phase II allows institutions to continue research in the same disciplinary area or explore a significantly different area. Additionally, current CREST Center awardees can request supplemental funding to establish or strengthen partnerships and collaborations with other research centers, private sector labs, K-12 schools, and informal science entities. For more information and to submit a proposal, visit the NSF Publication 23-595 at http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf23595. The deadline for submission is December 6, 2024, and any inquiries can be directed to grantsgovsupport@nsf.gov.
