Minority Science Improvement

The Minority Science Improvement program is designed to create long-range improvement in science and engineering education at predominantly minority institutions of higher education and to increase the participation of underrepresented ethnic minorities in scientific and technological career fields. Under the program, awards may be made to public and private, nonprofit minority institutions, nonprofit science-oriented organizations, professional scientific societies, and all nonprofit accredited colleges and universities providing service to a group of eligible minority institutions or providing in-service training for project directors, scientists, or engineers from eligible minority institutions.
