This $4,793,345 Project Grant was awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management (DOE-EM) under the Minority Economic Impact program (CFDA 81.137) to Florida A&M University (FAMU). The grant, awarded on April 1, 2024, supports the DOE-EM Minority Serving Institutions Partnership Program (MSIPP) to enhance the participation and sustainability of minority-serving institutions (MSIs) and minority-owned businesses in energy and STEM sectors. The grant funds a range of initiatives at FAMU, including curriculum development, research projects, training programs, and internships focused on energy, environmental management, and STEM workforce development. FAMU is collaborating with two sub-awardees, Kentucky State University and Clark Atlanta University, on the "Let's Talk Big Data: A Geospatial-Artificial Intelligence Enhanced Curriculum (L TBD-GAIEC) for Minority Serving Institutions" project. This project aims to build MSI capacity in data science, geospatial analysis, and AI/ML applications relevant to DOE's environmental management and energy missions. The sub-awards total an additional undisclosed amount to support the curriculum development and implementation at the partner institutions.
