The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $100,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070) to the University of North Texas (UNT) Research and Innovation Division. The grant will fund a series of four workshops from 2024-2026 aimed at training aspiring Principal Investigators from minority-serving institutions (MSIs) in the Southern and Southeastern U.S. to prepare and submit research proposals to the CISE MSI program. The key objectives are to foster community building, facilitate cross-learning and knowledge sharing, provide mentoring, and develop new research collaborations among MSI scholars in data science, artificial intelligence, and extended reality. This effort aims to address challenges MSIs face in establishing robust research programs, including limited training in proposal writing and student involvement in research.
