Cooperative Activity with Department of Energy Programs for Education and Human Resource Development

This is a cooperative effort between NSF and the Department of Energy (DoE) Office of Science. To support the continued leadership of the United States in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and the continued development of a competitive, diverse STEM workforce, NSF and DoE are implementing collaboration between the agencies' programs for the development of human resources in STEM. NSF and DoE will support students and faculty from eligible NSF projects (based on competitive Merit Review and availability of funds) who are accepted as participants in one of four DoE initiatives that provide hands-on research opportunities in DoE national laboratories during the summer: Science Undergraduate Research Internships (SULI), Faculty and Student Teams (FaST), Community College Institute of Science and Technology (CCI), and Pre-Service Teacher (PST) Internships. Faculty from eligible NSF projects may submit supplement requests (see related NSF document below for details).
