Title Partnerships for Research and Education in Materials (PREM) Agencies National Science Foundation (NSF) Description The objective of PREM is to broaden participation and enhance diversity in materials research and education by stimulating the development of formal, long-term, multi-investigator, collaborative research and education partnerships between minority-serving colleges/universities and the NSF DMR-supported centers, institutes, and/or facilities. PREM awards are expected to achieve significant increases in the number and quality of interactions between faculty and students at minority-serving colleges/universities and participants from the DMR-supported centers, institutes and facilities, and should result in increasing graduate materials-related degrees for underrepresented minorities and in networking and dissemination of new knowledge. NSF's commitment to broadening participation is embedded in its Strategic Plan. Funded activities might include, but are not limited to, the development of collaborative and mutually beneficial materials research and education projects, support for graduate and undergraduate students, and exchanges of faculty and students. High school students and teachers may also participate. Of special interest to DMR are activities based on research and education connections between the participants and designed to increase the recruitment, retention and degree attainment by members of underrepresented groups in materials research. The participation of 2-year and 4-year Associate degree granting institutions in partnership with eligible institutions may be considered for this goal. While PREM awards engage in fundamental materials research, activities that encourage entrepreneurship are also of special interest to NSF. To date, successful PREMs have a strong overlap in research focus with the partner institution, and fully integrate the partner into the research and education activities of the PREM. In addition, successful PREMs have a well defined management structure, with active internal and external advisory committees. Additional Contacts: 1. Thomas P.
