Bill > HR2027

This bill, the MSI STEM Achievement Act, aims to direct federal science agencies and the Office of Science and Technology Policy to undertake activities that will improve the quality of undergraduate STEM education and enhance the research capacity at the nation's Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), and Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs). The key provisions of the bill include: conducting research on the contributions of HBCUs, TCUs, and MSIs to the education and training of underrepresented minority students in STEM fields; building the capacity of these institutions to graduate students who are competitive in the STEM workforce; establishing up to five MSI Centers of Innovation to serve as incubators for scaling up promising practices; and requiring federal science agencies to develop uniform policy guidelines for outreach activities to increase the participation and competitiveness of HBCUs, TCUs, and MSIs in federal funding programs.
