Dear Colleague Letter - Stimulating Research Related to the Science of Broadening Participation
Colleagues, Charlene Simon, our University's Assistant Director of the Research Proposal Development tipped me to this Dear Colleague Letter regarding broadening all types of participation in the nation's STEM enterprise. As noted below
A Science of Broadening Participation will employ the cognitive, behavioral, social and economic sciences to inform approaches to broadening participation and will strengthen our national science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) capabilities and competitive advantage. Ultimately, the SBP can provide policy makers with the evidence needed for informed decisions.
Please consider whether your research would qualify for this program, and circulate the announcement broadly. This is a field of research in which NCSU could really make a mark.
