Welcome
The Division of Human Resource Development
(HRD), within the Directorate for Education and Human Resources,
serves as a focal point for NSF's agency-wide commitment
to enhancing the quality and excellence of science, technology, engineering,
and mathematics (STEM) education and research
through broadening participation by underrepresented groups
and institutions. The Division's programs aim to increase
the participation and advancement of underrepresented minorities
and minority-serving institutions, women and girls, and
persons with disabilities at every level of the science
and engineering enterprise. HRD programs
contribute to attainment of the PEOPLE outcome goal of the
NSF Strategic Plan FY 2003-2008:A diverse,
competitive, and globally engaged U. S. workforce of scientists,
engineers, and well-prepared citizens. Programs within
HRD have a strong focus on partnerships and collaborations
in order to maximize the preparation of a well-trained scientific
and instructional workforce for the new millennium.
The programs of the HRD are organized to align with our
target populations:
- Minorities and Minority-Serving Institutions
- Women and Girls
- Persons with Disabilities
- Crosscutting Activities
Five themes are evident across the program targets:
- Education Research and Demonstration Projects on Access
and Equity,
- Institutional Education Capacity Enhancement,
- Large-scale Implementation,
- Institutional Research Capacity Enhancement, and
- Recognition and Dissemination
Programs according to target and theme
