Today, the U.S. National Science Foundation awarded its latest grants through PREM, Partnerships for Research and Education in Materials, to support eight collaborative research teams across the United States that will increase diversity in cutting-edge materials research, education and professions.
Each six-year award provides nearly $4,000,000 for a total NSF investment of more than $30,000,000 and will support materials research partnerships between minority-serving institutions and large-scale, NSF-supported research facilities.
In addition to supporting new discoveries, the PREM pathway provides institutional support to increase recruitment, retention and degree-attainment by underrepresented groups, and provides underserved communities with access to materials research and education. The awards are intended to support and motivate a diverse cohort of students through graduation, the pursuit of higher education, and rewarding careers.
