This award enables the Quality Education for Minorities (QEM) Network to offer 7 workshops for faculty at HBCUs. The series includes proposal development workshops for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) faculty at these minority-serving institutions that have never received HBCU-UP support. Workshops in the series focuses on enhancing the ability of STEM and/or Education faculty at current HBCU-UP grantee institutions to prepare competitive Broadening Participation Research (BPR) and Research Initiation Awards (RIA) proposals to NSF's HBCU-UP program. The proposed project convenes STEM junior faculty from grantee institutions to discuss effective mentoring and training of STEM undergraduates as research assistants. These workshops are designed to help ensure that students who graduate from HBCU institutions with degrees in STEM disciplines are well-prepared to successfully pursue STEM graduate study or to transition into the STEM workforce.The workshops will involve a minimum of 250 different STEM faculty from HBCUs and provide a strong foundation for institutions to pursue and successfully receive increased support for STEM and STEM education activities on their respective campuses. Strengthening STEM disciplinary offerings at minority-serving institutions represented in the workshop series increases the number and quality of preparation of STEM graduates from these institutions. This, in turn, positions HBCUs to enhance and expand their contribution to the quality and productivity of the Nation?s STEM workforce.

该奖项使少数民族（QEM）网络的优质教育能够为HBCUS的教师提供7个研讨会。该系列包括这些从未获得过HBCU支持的少数派服务机构的科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）教师的提案开发研讨会。 该系列的研讨会着重于增强目前HBCU-UP受赠人机构在NSF的HBCU-UP计划中准备竞争力扩大参与研究（BPR）和研究发起奖（RIA）建议的能力。拟议的项目召集了受赠人机构的STEM初级教师，讨论了作为研究助理的STEM大学生的有效指导和培训。 这些研讨会旨在帮助确保从HBCU毕业的STEM学科学位的学生得到充分准备，以成功地追求STEM研究生学习或过渡到STEM劳动力。该研讨会将涉及250个不同的STEM教师，从HBCUS和STEM进行启动和STEM的支持，并为STEM提供了强大的基础，并为他们的STEM提供了更多的支持，并为他们的STEM提供了更多的支持。在研讨会系列中代表的少数族裔服务机构加强STEM学科产品增加了这些机构的STEM毕业生的数量和质量。反过来，这将HBCUS提高和扩大其对国家STEM劳动力质量和生产力的贡献。
