The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $1,000,000 Project Grant under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to New Mexico State University (NMSU) to lead the "Louis Stokes Renewal STEM Pathways and Research Alliance: New Mexico Alliance for Minority Participation (NM AMP)" from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2029. The project aims to increase the number of underrepresented minority students who complete high-quality STEM baccalaureate degrees and enter the STEM workforce or pursue graduate education. Key activities include undergraduate research experiences, mentoring, collaborations with national labs and industry, social science research on broadening STEM participation, and assessment of progress toward institutionalizing the NM AMP model. NMSU partners with the University of New Mexico, New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, and other regional institutions to implement the project. The grant funding will support these efforts to enhance STEM education and pathways for minority students in New Mexico.
