About this opportunity
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is seeking applicants for the MUREP INCLUDES cooperative agreement. The goal of the program is to expand the awareness and involvement of underrepresented minorities (URMs) in engineering, with a focus on cultural competence. Key activities include enhancing students' engineering skills, developing a pool of engineers in fields relevant to NASA, supporting new engineering courses and degree programs, incorporating NASA content into curricula, providing research experiences for students, enabling effective delivery of engineering concepts, and empowering student transitions into engineering degrees. The evaluation criteria emphasize improving access, establishing inclusive environments, delivering culturally diverse activities, and offering novel approaches to retain URMs in engineering pathways.
The funding is provided through the Office of STEM Engagement (OSTEM) program, which aims to advance NASA's mission through STEM education initiatives. Award values and budget details are not specified. The place of performance is not explicitly stated.
Synopsis
MUREP INCLUDES coalitions endeavor to apply numerous approaches to expand the awareness and involvement of URMs in engineering with a focus on cultural competence. MUREP INCLUDES implements activities explicitly to heighten students' engineering skills; develops a pool of engineers in fields relevant to NASA; supports the design and deployment of new engineering courses and/or degree programs; infuses NASA content into engineering curriculum; provides authentic and diverse research experiences for students; enables educators to present engineering concepts and activities to students effectively; empower students into transitioning into engineering degrees through bridging programs, and capstone projects; and disseminates MSI-led coalitions successes through conference papers/journal/publication. Finally, the various coalition projects seek to provide improved access for URMs in engineering fields, establish inclusive environments, deliver culturally diverse activities, and offer novel approaches to retain URMs in engineering degree pathways.
