If recommended for funding as a lead applicant, funding will be provided through the DOE Field-Work Proposal System and work will be conducted under the laboratory’s contract with DOE. No administrative provisions of this FOA will apply to the laboratory or any laboratory subcontractor. Additional instructions for securing authorization from the cognizant Contracting Officer are found in Section VIII of this FOA. 2. Non-DOE/NNSA FFRDCs Non-DOE/NNSA FFRDCs are eligible to submit applications under this FOA but are not eligible to be proposed as subrecipients under another organization’s application.

Description

Reaching a New Energy Sciences Workforce (RENEW) aims to build foundations for Office of Science (SC) research and training at institutions historically underrepresented in the SC research portfolio. RENEW leverages SC’s unique national laboratories, user facilities, and other research infrastructures to provide undergraduate and graduate training opportunities for students and academic institutions not currently well represented in the U.S. science and technology (S&T) ecosystem. The hands-on experiences gained through RENEW will open new career avenues for participants, forming a nucleus for a future pool of talented young scientists, engineers, and technicians with the critical skills and expertise needed for the full breadth of SC research activities. Principal Investigators, key personnel, and students and postdocs of RENEW awards will be invited to participate in ASCR researcher meetings and/or SC-wide professional development and collaborator events. The goal of ASCR’s RENEW program is to increase participation of underrepresented groups in the advanced scientific computing workforce and to increase participation of underrepresented institutions in advanced scientific computing workforce training. ASCR announces its interest in receiving applications for collaborative projects to enhance training opportunities for students and postdoctoral researchers from underrepresented groups and at institutions that are currently underrepresented in the ASCR portfolio[1] such as non-R1[2] institutions of higher education and minority serving institutions[3], including Historically Black Colleges and Universities. [1] Information about SC awards can be found in the Portfolio Analysis and Management System: https://pamspublic.science.energy.gov/WebPAMSExternal/Interface/Awards/… [2] The Carnegie Classifications of Institutions of Higher Education can be found at https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu. A list of institutions with very high research activity (R1 institutions) is available at https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu/lookup/srp.php?clq=%7B%22bas…. A list of institutions with high research activity (R2 institutions) is available at https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu/lookup/srp.php?clq=%7B%22bas… [3] MSIs are understood broadly to include, but not be limited to, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs), Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Asian American Native American and Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions. The US Department of Education list of HBCUs in 2021 can be found at: https://sites.ed.gov/whhbcu/one-hundred-and-five-historically-black-col… US Department of Education maintains records of institutions eligible for recognition as MSIs at https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ope/idues/eligibility.html. For the purposes of this FOA, institutions marked in the most recent eligibility matrix as either being eligible to receive funding or as receiving funding will be considered an MSI.
