The National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education awarded North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University $2 million on October 1, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to provide scholarships and integrated support services to 30 high-achieving, low-income undergraduate and graduate students pursuing degrees in applied engineering technology, automotive engineering technology, computer graphics technology, and electronics technology. Scholars will receive need-based scholarships covering unmet need up to $15,000 for undergraduates or $20,000 for graduate students for up to five years. The project will provide faculty, industry, and peer mentoring; build scholar cohorts through monthly meetings and professional workshops; offer competence-based micro credentials and a community of practice; and facilitate undergraduate research, industry internships, and competition opportunities. An external evaluator will assess how removing socioeconomic constraints influences identity formation, systems-thinking development, and persistence in engineering technology disciplines, generating data on effective strategies to support low-income STEM talent. Performance of work occurs in Greensboro, North Carolina, with a period of performance from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2032. The project addresses the national need for skilled scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and technicians while strengthening the advanced manufacturing workforce.
