About this grant

The National Science Foundation (NSF) plays a prominent role in the improvement of undergraduate STEM education at the Nation's colleges and universities. Through the ITYC program, the agency seeks to extend this effort by making an intentional investment in two-year institutions of higher education. The twin goals of the ITYC program are to center students in the effort to advance innovation and promote success in STEM education, and to enhance the capacity of two-year colleges to harness the talent and potential of their student and faculty populations.
