NNSA Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program Background:

Administered by DOE/NNSA Management and Budget, Implemented through consortia-based grants consisting of participants from selected MSIs and NNSA production facilities and laboratories Purpose:

Designed to build a sustainable pipeline between DOE’s sites/labs and MSIs in STEM disciplines, and bring a heightened awareness of NNSA plants and laboratories to MSIs with a common interest in STEM research fields.

Capacity Building: Research and infrastructure Student Enrichment and Development: Exposure to academic and professional experiences, promote successful internship opportunities for students to transition to the NSE STEM workforce Collaborative Research/Tech Transfer: Access to world-class resources and research opportunities Value to the National Security Enterprise:

Links students’ academic pursuits with professional work and research conducted by national laboratory/site partners.

Exposes students to technology and research housed at national laboratory/site partners.

Provides students with internship opportunities at DOE/NNSA national laboratories/plants that are aligned with their academic disciplines.

Prepares students to make significant and immediate contributions to the DOE/NNSA STEM workforce upon graduation Since 2015, 466 internships at NNSA plant and lab partners through consortia.

NNSA Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program Mission:

Create and foster a sustainable STEM-pipeline that prepares a diverse workforce of world class talent through strategic partnerships between Minority Serving Institutions and the DOE/NNSA Enterprise.

Vision:

Drive a diverse, highly educated, and agile STEM workforce prepared for the future of the DOE/NNSA Enterprise.

Crucial Success Factors:

Strengthen and expand MSI STEM educational and/or research capacity in DOE/NNSA mission areas.

Target collaborations between MSIs and the DOE/NNSA enterprise that increase interactions to provide MSIs direct access to DOE/NNSA STEM resources.

Grow the number of minority (MSIPP) students who graduate with STEM degrees.

Grow the number of minority (MSIPP) graduates and post-doctoral students hired in to DOE/NNSA STEM workforce.

Historical Data from previous years and an example of the training schedule

Guiding Principles Through alliance with university partners, NNSA is better positioned to:

Maintain a safe, secure, and effective nuclear weapons stockpile Prevent, counter, and respond to global nuclear threats Conduct leading-edge scientific research Recruit, retain, and develop a diverse and expert workforce Protect the safety and security of sites, employees, and public Advance the Secretary of Energy’s STEM initiatives

Guiding Principles

DOE/NNSA Prevent, Counter, and Respond “The scientific and technical capabilities and highly-skilled workforce of the nuclear security enterprise support DOE/NNSA’s nonproliferation, counterterrorism, counterproliferation, and emergency response programs in executing their critical national security missions.”

President’s Management Agenda Cross-Agency Priority Goal #8 - Results-oriented accountability for grants “Federal agencies will maximize the value of grant funding by applying a risk-based, data-driven framework that balances compliance requirements with demonstrating successful results for the American taxpayer.”

National Security Strategy - Pillar #2 Lead in Research, Technology, Invention, and Innovation.

" We will encourage scientists in government, academia, and the private sector to achieve advancements across the full spectrum of discovery, from incremental improvements to game-changing breakthroughs. We will nurture a healthy innovation economy that collaborates with allies and partners, improves STEM education, draws on an advanced technical workforce, and invests in early-stage research and development (R&D).”
