This grant is for the purpose of significantly increasing the number of U.S. citizens or permanent residents who successfully complete associate or baccalaureate degrees in critical Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields. The Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Talent Expansion Program (STEP) aims to foster a more robust STEM workforce and research base. Two distinct types of proposals are invited: Type 1 focuses on full implementation initiatives at academic institutions designed to directly expand student success in STEM. Type 2 supports vital educational research, exploring effective strategies and factors influencing associate or baccalaureate degree attainment within STEM disciplines. This initiative is crucial for advancing national expertise in scientific and technological areas.

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: – Type 1 proposals are invited from academic institutions in the United States and its territories, from consortia thereof, or from nonprofit organizations that have established consortia among such academic institutions. The academic institutions must offer either associate degrees or baccalaureate degrees in science, technology, engineering and/or mathematics (STEM). Associate degree-granting institutions with a demonstrated record of articulation to STEM baccalaureate programs need not necessarily grant associate degrees in STEM fields in order to be eligible for this program. Projects may involve a single institution, collaboration with business and industrial partners, or collaboration among several institutions. For example, projects may include collaborative efforts that improve the transition of students among the collaborating institutions, such as transfer between two- and four-year institutions. Type 2 proposals are invited from any individual or organization eligible to submit proposals to the NSF. |
