7. National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) DUE programs aim to strengthen and ensure the vitality of undergraduate STEM education for: science, mathematics, or engineering majors; students in science and engineering technology programs; future teachers at the elementary and secondary school levels; and non-science majors seeking scientific and technical literacy.

8. National Science Foundation DUE Programs STEM Talent Expansion Program (STEP) Seeks to increase the number of students (U.S. citizens or permanent residents) and receiving associate or baccalaureate degrees in established or emerging fields within science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). http://www.ehr.nsf.gov/ehr/DUE/programs/step/

9. National Science Foundation DUE Programs Course, Curriculum and Laboratory Improvement Program (CCLI) Supports: The development of new educational materials (EMD track) The adaptation and implementation of existing educational materials (A&I track) Large-scale faculty professional development (ND track) The new development, adaptation or dissemination of tools for assessment of student achievement (ASA track) http://www.ehr.nsf.gov/ehr/DUE/programs/ccli/
