Historical Information Current competition started in summer of 2000--143 proposals, 33 are invited as full proposals. New centers are expected in 2002. Competition of 1998--5 new centers started in 2000 Competition of 1991--12 centers Competition of 1989--10 centers One of the most successful centers is from University of Oklahoma -- Center for the Analysis and Prediction of Storms (CAPS)

Overview of STC Program Goals Proposal / Evaluation Criteria

NSF in a Changing World 3 overarching goals 4 core strategies world class science promote discovery in service to society excellence in science math and engineering education 4 core strategies strengthening physical infrastructure integrating research and education promote partnerships developing intellectual capital Equal value for research and education.

The Science and Technology Centers: Integrative Partnerships (STC) Research efforts not before possible Involvement of researchers in education efforts at a different level (bring your creative juices to bear on the k-12 education system of this nation..with institutionalization of models in mind) Not feel good education and outreach A cultural Change agent on campuses

Issues possible to approach in this mode of support Connectivity of the community for various items (research, education, communications) Partnerships in research, education (U/I; U/U; U/State; U/Fed; U/INT) too numerous to enumerate all International issues Education over the web (curriculum reform) Models for dissemination Innovative and non-traditional uses of technologies/communications

STCs...A VERY RISKY BUSINESS Risk in research outcomes Risk in educational goals Management Risk

Proposal Evaluation Criteria 1. What is the intellectual merit of the proposed activity? 2. What are the broader impacts of the proposed activity? 3. Integration of research and education 4. Integrating diversity into NSF programs, projects, and activities. 5. Value of the center-mode to research, education, and knowledge transfer. 6. Integrative nature of the proposed center. 7. Leadership, management plan, impact of institutional support, and budget.

Awardees vs. Declinees Value Added Regional or National Impact Demonstrated commitment of Institutions Leadership
