Broadening Participation for Greater Diversity
NSF has a strong commitment to broadening participation (http://www.nsf.gov/od/broadeningparticipation/bp.jsp). Groups underrepresented in materials research include women, underrepresented minorities (African Americans, American Indians including Native Alaskans, Hispanics and Native Pacific Islanders), and persons with disabilities.
The links below provide a sampling of information that may help Principal Investigators and others in broadening participation in their activities. This list is not meant to be exhaustive or to imply any special endorsement by DMR (or NSF).
