The Historically Black Colleges and Universities - Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) provides support to undertake an institutional self-analysis in preparation for a Broadening Participation Research Center. Broadening Participation Research Centers are expected to serve as national hubs for the rigorous study and broad dissemination of the critical pedagogies and culturally sensitive interventions that contribute to the success of HBCUs in educating African American STEM undergraduates. This project is a collaborative effort between the initial members of an education research consortium: Tennessee State University, Prairie View A&M University, Morgan State University, North Carolina A&T State University, and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. The consortium of schools and team of researchers will work to plan research activities that will lead to the formation of a research center that delineates which individual factors, environmental factors, institutional practices, procedures, and policies are most effective in ensuring that students successfully complete STEM degrees at HBCUs. Activities of this project include: implementating a strategic planning framework built upon the broadening participation education research expertise of the collaborating institutions involved in the development of an expanded education research consortium of HBCUs; using evidence-based strategies to generate a high-quality plan for the research thrusts and research methodologies of the resulting center; and addressing the gap in the literature regarding STEM education research results, practices and policies pertinent to student persistence and graduation at HBCUs. The project will be guided by an on-going evaluation and an external advisory committee.

历史悠久的黑人学院和大学 - 本科课程（HBCU-UP）为进行机构自我分析提供了支持，以准备扩大参与研究中心。 预计扩大参与研究中心将作为国家枢纽的严格研究和广泛传播，对关键教学和对文化敏感的干预措施，这有助于HBCU在教育非裔美国人的茎本科生方面的成功。该项目是教育研究联盟的初始成员之间的合作努力：田纳西州立大学，Prairie View A＆M University，Morgan State University，North Carolina A＆T州立大学，弗吉尼亚理工学院和州立大学。学校和研究人员团队将努力计划研究活动，这将导致成立一个研究中心，该研究中心描述哪些因素，环境因素，机构实践，程序和政策在确保学生成功完成HBCUS的STEM学位方面最有效。该项目的活动包括：实施一个战略规划框架，建立在不断扩大的参与教育研究专业知识上，该研究专业知识知识是与HBCUS开发扩展的教育研究联盟有关的合作机构；使用基于证据的策略来为结果中心的研究推力和研究方法生成高质量的计划；并解决有关STEM教育研究结果，实践和政策与学生的持久性和HBCUS毕业有关的差距。该项目将以正在进行的评估和外部咨询委员会为指导。
