Program Description

This program assists predominantly minority institutions in effecting long-range improvement in science and engineering education programs and increasing the flow of underrepresented ethnic minorities, particularly minority women, into science and engineering careers.


Types of Projects

The program funds are generally used to implement design projects, institutional projects, and cooperative projects. The program also supports special projects designed to provide or improve support to accredited nonprofit colleges, universities, and professional scientific organizations for a broad range of activities that address specific barriers that eliminate or reduce the entry of minorities into science and technology fields.


Provide Us Your Feedback

We value your feedback. If you have concerns or suggestions about how the Office of Postsecondary Education provides services to the public, please send an e-mail to OPE_FEEDBACK@ed.gov. We will review your comment and where applicable, will take appropriate action. This mailbox is monitored by staff outside the program office and your concerns will be communicated to the appropriate officials without your name or the name of your institution being shared unless absolutely necessary to address your concern. Should that be necessary, we will make every effort to contact you first.
