The National Science Foundation and HBCUs Advancing Diversity and Innovation in STEM” will discuss the importance of HBCUs in advancing diversity and innovation in STEM. The panel will also highlight what NSF is doing to broaden participation in STEM and unique opportunities for STEM researchers and advocates to take advantage of NSF opportunities. The theme for the Symposium is “Let it Resound: Research, Action and Practice.” The purpose of the Symposium is to provide specific guidance on building institutional capacity through collaborations between HBCU STEM researchers, administrators, and a cross-section of stakeholders, and to increase awareness of NSF’s broadening participation programs and funding opportunities.
