Eligibility

Eligible Applicants: Others (see text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility” for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: *Organization Limit: Proposals may only be submitted by the following:

Lead institution eligibility for a Targeted Partnership is limited to an institution of higher education or an eligible non-profit organization (or consortia of such institutions or organizations). A non-profit organization eligible to serve as a lead institution for a Partnership project is defined as a nonprofit research institute, or a nonprofit professional association, with demonstrated experience and effectiveness in mathematics or science education (National Science Foundation Act of 2002, Public Law 107-368).

Eligibility for Research, Evaluation and Technical Assistance (RETA) projects, including the STEM Education Resource Collaboratory, is open to all categories of proposers identified in the NSF Grant Proposal Guide.Proposals for research on state plans for STEM education in the RETA research component must include a state or consortium of states.

With the exception of a RETA proposal for the STEM Education Resource Collaboratory, any proposal to the MSP Program should be a single submission that includes support for all partners that are requesting funding from NSF. Separately submitted collaborative proposals, as defined in the NSF Grant Proposal Guide (Chapter II, Section D.4Collaborative Proposals), are not appropriate and will be returned without review.

A RETA proposal for the STEM Education Resource Collaboratory may be submitted as a single proposal or as simultaneous submissions of proposals from different organizations.

*PI Limit:
There is no eligibility requirement for the Principal Investigator of a Targeted Partnership proposal. Among the team of the Principal Investigator and co-Principal Investigators for such a Partnership, there must be:
<ul><li>at least one mathematician, engineer, or scientist who is a college/university faculty member with a regular appointment in a disciplinary unit of a Core Partner institution of higher education and with a history of publishing in the discipline (not only education of the discipline), and</li><li>at least one person who is a representative from a Core Partner K-12 organization. </li></ul>

Additional Information

Agency Name: U.S. National Science Foundation
Description: The Math and Science Partnership (MSP) program is a major research and development effort that supports innovative partnerships to improve K-12 student achievement in mathematics and science. MSP projects are expected to raise the achievement levels of all students and significantly reduce achievement gaps in the STEM performance of diverse student populations. MSP projects contribute to what is known in K-12 STEM education. All STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) fields supported by NSF may be involved in this work, with special encouragement to areas that are gaining increased traction at the K-12 level, such as computer science and engineering, in addition to mathematics and science. MSP projects also serve as models that have a sufficiently strong evidence/research base to improve STEM education outcomes for all students. Through this solicitation, NSF seeks to support two levels of Targeted Partnership awards, Implementation and Prototype. Implementation awards are intended to develop and put into practice innovative approaches and strategies in education. Prototype awards explore potentially innovative approaches and strategies in education. Both types of Partnerships incorporate significant new innovations to STEM education, linked to a strong educational research agenda, in one of four focal areas: Community Enterprise for STEM Learning; Current Issues Related to STEM Content; Identifying and Cultivating Exceptional Talent; and K-12 STEM Teacher Preparation. In addition, there are three types of Research, Evaluation and Technical Assistance (RETA) project opportunities in this solicitation: research related to sustainability, or policies, or state plans for STEM education; technical assistance for evaluators of MSP projects; and the STEM Education Resource Collaboratory.
