(Alphabetical Listing)
Center
for the Advancement of Scholarship on Engineering Education (CASEE)
Provides support to AGEP postdoctoral engineering education researchers
Center for Careers in Science and Technology
Provides information, training, and other career opportunities for educators,
scientists, policymakers, professional organizations, non-profits,
governments, and industries

(IGERT) National Recruitment Program
The mission of the IGERT National Recruitment Program is to help students
find the IGERT program that is right for them, and help IGERT faculty and PIs
find the students that are right for their programs
Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA)
Programs to support disadvantaged and underrepresented students to achieve academically
in math, science and engineering and go on to attain math-based degrees
Minority
Scientists Network
The Minority Scientists Network (MiSciNet), from ScienceCareers.org,
specifically targets African American, Native American, and Latino students. MiSciNet perceives
undergraduate years as the most vulnerable time in the training of minority scientists
and, therefore, has placed its focus on undergraduates — especially
those transitioning from 2-year to 4-year colleges and from undergraduate
to graduate education. MiSciNet's main
objective has been the wide dissemination of information about best practices.
For teachers and administrators, MiSciNet propagates information on recruitment
and retention. For students, it provides inspiration, stimulation, and
guidance on succeeding as early-stage scientific trainees
National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering (NACME)
Focus on increasing the representation of African American, American Indian and
Latino women and men in engineering and technology, math- and science-based careers
National Science Foundation / Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate
Program (HBCU-UP)
Program provides awards to enhance the quality of undergraduate science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education and research at Historically Black
Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) as a means to broaden participation in the
Nation's STEM workforce. Support is available for implementation projects, planning
grants, education research projects, and targeted infusion projects
National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE)
Meetings, membership, competitions and scholarships, publications
ScienceNOW
