Title
Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Pathways into Geoscience (IUSE: GEOPATHS)
Agencies
National Science Foundation (NSF)
Description
A well-prepared, innovative science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) workforce is crucial to the Nation's health and economy. Indeed, recent policy actions and reports have drawn attention to the opportunities and challenges inherent in increasing the number of highly qualified STEM graduates, including STEM teachers. Priorities include educating students to be leaders and innovators in emerging and rapidly changing STEM fields as well as educating a scientifically literate populace. Both of these priorities depend on the nature and quality of the undergraduate education experience. In addressing these STEM challenges and priorities, the National Science Foundation invests in evidence-based and evidence-generating approaches to understanding STEM learning; to designing, testing, and studying instruction and curricular change; to wide dissemination and implementation of best practices; and to broadening participation of individuals and institutions in STEM fields. The goals of these investments include: increasing the number and diversity of STEM students, preparing students well to participate in science for tomorrow, and improving students' STEM learning outcomes.
NSF’s Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE) initiative, launched in Fiscal Year 2014, supports a coherent set of investments to address immediate challenges and opportunities that are facing undergraduate STEM education, as well as those that anticipate new structures (e.g. organizational changes, new methods for certification or credentialing, course re-conception, cyberlearning, etc.) and new functions of the undergraduate learning and teaching enterprise. The NSF-wide IUSE initiative acknowledges the variety of discipline-specific challenges and opportunities facing STEM faculty as they strive to incorporate results from educational research into classroom practice and work with education research colleagues and social science learning scholars to advance our understanding of effective teaching and learning.
The Directorate for Geosciences (GEO) contributes to the IUSE initiative through the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Pathways into Geoscience (IUSE: GEOPATHS) funding opportunity. IUSE: GEOPATHS invites proposals that specifically address the current needs and opportunities related to undergraduate education within the geosciences community. The primary goal of the IUSE: GEOPATHS funding opportunity is to increase the number of undergraduate students interested in pursuing undergraduate degrees and/or post-graduate degrees in geoscience through the design and testing of novel approaches for engaging students in authentic, career-relevant experiences in geoscience. In order to broaden participation in the geosciences, engaging undergraduate students from traditionally underrepresented groups or from non-geoscience degree programs is a priority. The IUSE: GEOPATHS solicitation features two funding Tracks: (1) Engaging students in the geosciences through extra-curricular experiences and training activities (GEOPATHS-EXTRA), and (2) Improving pathways into the geosciences through institutional collaborations and transfer (GEOPATHS-IMPACT).

Clean Energy Manufacturing Innovation Institute for Reducing EMbodied-energy And Decreasing Emissions (REMADE) in Materials Manufacturing
Agencies
United States Department of Energy (DOE)
Description
Department of Energy (DOE)
Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE)
Reducing EMbodied-energy And Decreasing Emissions (REMADE) in Materials Manufacturing is the topic of this Manufacturing Innovation Institute. As the consumption of materials grows, the embodied energy and greenhouse gas emissions footprint associated with the production of these materials is becoming increasingly important. Most of the energy consumption within the energy-intensive subsectors of manufacturing is used in converting raw materials for ultimate use in end products.26,27,28 Analysis demonstrates that significant energy, cost and materials resources could be saved through technologies that drive improvements in the efficiency of materials re-use during the manufacturing process. Technologies to enable the recycling, reuse and remanufacturing of materials would recover the embodied energy of end-of-life (EOL) and waste materials and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The energy needed to economically reprocess materials into secondary feedstock must be at a minimum less than the energy required to produce primary feedstock in order to realize net-energy savings. Materials-efficient processes and secondary/recycled feedstocks must be cost-competitive with current manufacturing approaches to enable private sector adoption– and should be targeted at multiple stages within the lifecycle of materials.

Specifically, the technologies to be developed in a REMADE Institute are expected to provide significant and quantifiable benefits to commercially relevant materials manufacturing, through:
• Improved embodied-energy efficiency (% change in BTU/kg of product)
• Improved material efficiency (% material loss)
• Reduction in operating expense ($/kg of product)
• Reduction in capital expense ($/kg of product per day)
• Reduction in primary material (kg of primary feedstock/kg of product)
• Waste reduction (% loss of feedstock throughout process)
