1. TCUP Leadership Forum January 3, 2014 Sylvia M. James, Ed.D. Division Director, Human Resource Development (HRD)

2. HRD Vision: HRD envisions a well-prepared and competitive U.S. workforce of scientists, technicians, engineers, mathematicians, and educators that reflects the diversity of the U.S. population. (www.nsf.gov)

3. HRD’s Strategic Goals The creation of new knowledge, innovations, and models for broadening participation in the STEM enterprise. The translation of knowledge, innovations, and models for broadening participation in STEM for use by stakeholders. The expansion of stakeholder capacity to support and engage diverse populations in high quality STEM education and research programs.

4. Broadening Participation in STEM EHR Vision: The directorate works toward that vision through its mission, which is to support the preparation of a diverse, globally competent STEM workforce and a STEM-literate citizenry through investment in research and development on STEM education and learning. STEM in the 2014 Budget: “The focus of the 2014 Budget’s undergraduate STEM investments is on implementing a cross-agency priority goal to increase the number of well-prepared graduates with STEM degrees by one million over the next 10 years.” (EHR 2014 Budget Request)

5. NSF Broadening Participation Priorities Preparing a diverse, globally engaged science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) workforce; Integrating research with education, and building capacity; Expanding efforts to broaden participation from underrepresented groups and diverse institutions across all geographical regions in all NSF activities; and Improving processes to recruit and select highly qualified reviewers and panelists.

6. Opportunities for Tribal Colleges and Universities Research Funding EHR TCUP, ATE, and …. Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE): Supports research and development leading to and propagating interventions that improve both the quality and quantity of STEM graduates EHR Core Research (ECR) NSF 13-555: Provides funding in foundational research areas. EHR seeks proposals that will help synthesize, build and/or expand research foundations in the following core areas: STEM learning, STEM learning environments, workforce development, and broadening participation in STEM. STEM-C Partnerships (NSF 14-523): Addresses both the need for advances in K-12 STEM education generally, as well as the need to elevate the inclusion of computer science education.
