About this opportunity
The National Science Foundation's Directorate for Geosciences (GEO) is seeking proposals for the Pathways into the Geosciences - Earth, Ocean, Polar and Atmospheric Sciences (GEOPAths) funding opportunity. This opportunity aims to increase the number of students pursuing undergraduate and/or postgraduate degrees in the geosciences through the design and testing of novel approaches that engage students in authentic, career-relevant experiences. The solicitation features three funding tracks that focus on Geoscience Learning Ecosystems (GLEs): GEOPAths:Informal Networks (IN), GEOPAths:Undergraduate Preparation (UP), and GEOPAths:Graduate Opportunities (GO). Proposals should address the current needs and opportunities related to education, learning, training, and professional development within the geosciences community, with a priority on engaging students from historically excluded groups or from non-geoscience degree programs. The deadline for this opportunity is not provided.
The Federal Grant Program under which this opportunity is assigned is the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), which supports fundamental research and educational initiatives across various disciplines of Earth sciences. The recent Federal Grant Opportunities under this program have demonstrated a wide range of award values, typically spanning 1-5 year project periods, and predominantly awarded to universities and research-intensive institutions across the United States.
Synopsis
The Directorate for Geosciences (GEO) supports the Pathways into the Geosciences - Earth, Ocean, Polar and Atmospheric Sciences (GEOPAths) funding opportunity. GEOPAths invites proposals that specifically address the current needs and opportunities related to education, learning, training and professional development within the geosciences community through the formation of STEM Learning Ecosystems that engage students in the study of the Earth, its oceans, polar regions and atmosphere. The primary goal of the GEOPAths funding opportunity is to increase the number of students pursuing undergraduate and/or postgraduate degrees through the design and testing of novel approaches that engage students in authentic, career-relevant experiences in geoscience. In order to broaden participation in the geosciences, engaging students from historically excluded groups or from non-geoscience degree programs is a priority.This solicitation features three funding tracks that focus on Geoscience Learning Ecosystems (GLEs): 1. GEOPAths:Informal Networks(IN).Collaborative projects in this track will support geoscience learning and experiences in informal settings for teachers, pre-college (e.g., upper level high school) students, and early undergraduates in the geosciences. 2. GEOPAths:Undergraduate Preparation(UP).Projects in this track will engage pre-college and undergraduate students in extra-curricular experiences and training in the geosciences with a focus on service learning and workplace skill building. 3. GEOPAths:Graduate Opportunities(GO).Projects in this track will improve research and career-related pathways into the geosciences for undergraduate and graduate students through institutional collaborations with a focus on service learning and workplace skill building.
