The Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) in the state of Wyoming will enhance the research competitiveness of over 30 investigators working in two research clusters: (1) Ground Water Contamination: Detection, Prediction, Remediation; and (3) Basic Research in Fossil Energy Science. The clusters will form the core of a new Center for Environment and Natural Resources at the University of Wyoming. The Center will enhance Wyoming's human resources in S&E, its technological and economic development, and its fundamental science. In addition,innovative programs for teachers and for all students, especially women and minorities, will enhance the development of Wyoming's young people. Because Wyoming has no major federal or industrial research facilities, the Wyoming EPSCoR improvement plan focuses primarily on the University of Wyoming (UW). Interactions between UW, community colleges, public schools, and technology/economic development organizations are incorporated throughout the plan. Primary objectives include: (1) expansion of UW's capacity to conduct S&E research through reallocation of UW funds and positions and by enhanced state support; (2) an increased pool of S&E students through development of appealing interdisciplinary programs; (3) increased interactions between UW and the Western Research Institute through joint research; and (5) increased state awareness of the role of S&E research in Wyoming's economic development through enhanced interaction with established state boards and the executive and legislative branches of state government. Over the three- year award period the State of Wyoming will contribute $3.9 million to ensure the success of the EPSCoR effort.

怀俄明州的刺激竞争性研究实验计划 (EPSCoR) 将提高在两个研究集群中工作的 30 多名研究人员的研究竞争力：(1) 地下水污染：检测、预测、修复； （3）化石能源科学基础研究。 这些集群将构成怀俄明大学新环境与自然资源中心的核心。 该中心将增强怀俄明州在科学与工程领域的人力资源、技术和经济发展以及基础科学。 此外，针对教师和所有学生，特别是妇女和少数族裔的创新计划将促进怀俄明州年轻人的发展。 由于怀俄明州没有主要的联邦或工业研究设施，怀俄明州 EPSCoR 改进计划主要关注怀俄明大学 (UW)。 华盛顿大学、社区学院、公立学校和技术/经济发展组织之间的互动贯穿整个计划。 主要目标包括：（1）通过重新分配威斯康星大学资金和职位以及加强国家支持，扩大威斯康星大学进行科学与工程研究的能力； (2) 通过开发有吸引力的跨学科项目来增加科学与工程学生的数量； （3）通过联合研究加强威斯康星大学和西方研究所之间的互动； (5) 通过加强与现有州委员会以及州政府行政和立法部门的互动，提高州政府对科学与工程研究在怀俄明州经济发展中的作用的认识。在三年奖励期内，怀俄明州将捐助 390 万美元，以确保 EPSCoR 工作取得成功。
