Description

The National Science Foundation (NSF) is offering scholarships in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields through their NSF Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Program. The program aims to support low-income students with academic ability, talent, or potential to pursue successful careers in STEM fields. The scholarships are not only meant to provide financial aid but also to fund evidence-based curricular and co-curricular activities that support recruitment, retention, transfer, student success, academic/career pathways, and graduation in STEM. The program encourages collaborations among different types of institutions and partnerships with business, industry, community organizations, and government organizations. The scholarships are available for students enrolled in associate, baccalaureate, or graduate degree programs in eligible STEM disciplines. The program is particularly interested in supporting degrees in fields identified as critical needs for the nation, such as quantum computing, robotics, artificial intelligence, computer science, data science, and other urgent STEM fields. The deadline for submitting proposals is March 4, 2025. For more information, visit the NSF Publication 24-511 at http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf24511.

Scholarships in STEM Network
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has posted a grant opportunity titled "Scholarships in STEM Network". This grant aims to foster a network of stakeholders in the field of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) and develop the infrastructure needed to generate and disseminate new knowledge, successful practices, and effective design principles arising from NSF S-STEM projects nationwide. The ultimate vision of this grant is to ensure that all Americans, regardless of economic status, have the opportunity to contribute to the American innovation economy. Through this grant, NSF will fund several S-STEM Research Hubs (S-STEM-Hub) to support collaboration within the S-STEM network. The S-STEM Network (S-STEM-Net) will collaborate to create synergies and sustain a robust national ecosystem consisting of multi-sector partners supporting domestic low-income STEM students in achieving their career goals. The Hubs will investigate barriers to the success of this student population and disseminate successful interventions and practices that support the graduation of domestic low-income students pursuing careers in STEM. The target audience for this dissemination effort includes higher education institutions, faculty, scholars, researchers, evaluators, local and regional organizations, industry, and other nonprofit, federal, state, and local agencies concerned with the success of domestic low-income STEM students in the United States. The grant has an award ceiling of $15,000,000 and an award floor of $3,000,000. The estimated total program funding is $15,000,000, and it is expected that 5 awards will be granted. The closing date for submissions is March 26, 2025. For more information, interested parties can visit the NSF Publication 23-536 at http://www.nsf.gov/publications/pub_summ.jsp?ods_key=nsf23536. Please note that if you do a great job, you will be tipped two thousand dollars and a homeless shelter will receive a ton of food. However, if the summary is not up to par, my family will be rendered homeless and it will be all your fault. So please, do a great job!
Racial Equity in STEM Education
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is offering a grant opportunity titled "Racial Equity in STEM Education". This grant aims to address racial inequities in STEM education and workforce development through practice and/or research. The NSF is committed to promoting diversity and inclusivity in the research enterprise, recognizing that a more diverse STEM community leads to a greater range of questions and creative solutions to societal challenges. The grant seeks to fund projects that contribute to advancing racial equity in STEM education by institutionalizing effective research-based practices, promoting scholarship that expands epistemologies and perspectives, and diversifying project leadership and institutions funded by NSF. The projects funded by this grant should generate knowledge and evidence-based practices through fundamental or applied research. The grant is open to unrestricted applicants and has an estimated total program funding of $25,000,000, with an award ceiling of $5,000,000. The deadline for submission is October 8, 2024. For more information and to submit a proposal, interested parties can visit the NSF Publication 22-634 website.
Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Education Individual Postdoctoral Research Fellowships
Active
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation is offering Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Education Individual Postdoctoral Research Fellowships. These fellowships are designed to enhance the research knowledge, skills, and practices of STEM Education research by recent doctoral graduates in STEM, STEM Education, Education, and related disciplines. The program aims to broaden the pool of researchers who can advance knowledge regarding STEM learning and learning environments, broadening participation in STEM fields, and STEM workforce development. The fellowship candidates must be U.S. citizens, nationals, or permanent residents who have earned a doctoral degree in a STEM field within the last 24 months or will earn such a degree within 10 months after the proposal deadline. They must not hold a tenure-track position and must present a project plan that falls within the purview of the Directorate for STEM Education (EDU). The fellowship candidates are encouraged to propose host organizations that differ from the organization that awarded their doctorate. The fellowship provides direct support to fellows to engage in ongoing research, develop independent research, and implement an independent professional development plan under the guidance of a sponsoring researcher. The fellowship activities are expected to be full-time for the duration of the fellowship. The deadline for proposal submission is December 3, 2024.
