The Minority Research Centers of Excellence (MRCE) program was established in FY 1987 to provide substantial resources to upgrade the research capabilities of the strongest and most productive predominantly minority institutions. This planning grant project lays the foundation for a plan that will increase the institution's quality of research and research-related training. Specifically, support for this project will permit the establishment of an MRCE advisory committee of scientists and engineers, local leaders, and industrial representatives who will assist the institution in evaluating its current and future potential for performing meritorious research during the next five years. Southern University will assess its existing science and engineering base and the potential for the institution to become a Minority Research Center of Excellence. In addition, several dual degree programs with Louisiana State University in Allied Health, Chemistry, and several programs in Engineering will be reexamined. This institution has the facilities and personnel to develop a Minority Research Center of Excellence. The Foundation has supported this project because the proposed work can lead to the performance of meritorious research and will increase the participation of minorities in science and engineering.

少数族裔卓越研究中心（MRCE）项目成立于1987财年，旨在提供大量资源，提升以少数族裔为主的最强大、最具生产力的机构的研究能力。这个计划资助项目为一个计划奠定了基础，该计划将提高该机构的研究质量和与研究相关的培训。具体来说，对该项目的支持将允许建立一个由科学家和工程师、当地领导人和工业代表组成的MRCE咨询委员会，他们将协助该机构评估其在未来五年内进行有价值研究的当前和未来潜力。南方大学将评估其现有的科学和工程基础以及该机构成为少数民族卓越研究中心的潜力。此外，与路易斯安那州立大学联合健康、化学和工程的几个双学位课程将被重新审查。这所大学有设施和人员来发展一个优秀的少数民族研究中心。基金会之所以支持这个项目，是因为拟议的工作可以促成有价值的研究，并将增加少数民族对科学和工程的参与。
