This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program provides $228,389 to North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (NC A&T), an HBCU, to establish a Partnership for Research and Education in Materials (PREM) with the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC). The PREM partnership will engage students from underrepresented backgrounds in STEM fields through advanced materials research and education across three thrust areas: 2D materials, plasmonic materials, and biodegradable/bio-inspired materials. Key activities include collaborative research projects, student/faculty exchanges, peer mentoring, curriculum development, and K-12 outreach. UC San Diego is the sub-awardee and will lead collaborative research, facilitate student/faculty exchanges, and provide mentoring and professional development opportunities. The award aims to establish NC A&T as a globally recognized hub for materials research and education, while broadening participation of underrepresented minorities in STEM disciplines.
