CI-TEAM Implementation Project: Minority Serving Institutions (MSI)-Cyberinfrastructure (CI) Empowerment Coalition (MSI-CIEC)

少数民族服务机构(MSI)-网络基础设施（CI）授权联盟（MSI- ciec）项目摘要少数民族服务机构(MSI)-网络基础设施（CI）授权联盟（MSI- ciec）通过一个基于CI的分布式教育和研究网络，为MSI高管、管理人员、教职员工提供必要的沟通、支持和培训联系。对电子科学和CI计划感兴趣的学生和研究人员。MSI- ciec提供了所需的人类“中间件”，以促进支持CI的MSI与国家和国际CI倡议之间的研究和教育合作，加速将MSI及其学生纳入不断增长的国家CI活动。这项活动为msi的当前和下一代科学家准备使用、支持、部署、开发或设计CI。我们的广泛影响是动态发展的，因为发展MSI的能力为少数民族学生在ci促进的科学和知识经济的未来做好准备，并为他们提供了一个成功成为下一代教授的机会。通过MSI和CI领域的主要领导者的新颖合作，高等教育公平联盟（AEHE）建立了进一步的增强，因为它影响了超过335个机构，参与了整个MSI社区，并为建立MSI教师的CI和电子科学知识和技能提供了一个模型，并发展了一个包容性的国家CI支持的研究基础设施。该项目推进了与构建技术为媒介的、多机构的、跨民族的研究以及对CI发展至关重要的教育合作相关的知识。

Richard A. Alo, University of Houston - DowntownOCI-0636352Minority Serving Institutions (MSI)-Cyberinfrastructure (CI) Empowerment Coalition (MSI-CIEC)Project AbstractThe Minority Serving Institutions (MSI)-Cyberinfrastructure (CI) Empowerment Coalition (MSI-CIEC) provides essential communication, support and training linkages through a CI-enabled distributed education and research network for MSI executives, administrators, faculty, students and researchers interested in e-science and CI initiatives nationwide. MSI-CIEC provides the needed human "middleware" to foster research and education collaborations between CI-enabled MSI's and national and international CI initiatives accelerating the inclusion of MSIs and their students into the growing national CI activities. This activity prepares the current and next-generation scientists at MSIs to use, support, deploy, develop or design CI. Our Broad Range Impacts dynamically evolve since developing the MSI capacity prepares underrepresented minority students for a future in CI-facilitated science and the knowledge-based economy, and provides an opportunity for them to succeed as the next generation of the professoriate. Through a novel collaboration of MSIs and key leaders in CI, the Alliance for Equity in Higher Education (AEHE) builds further enhancement as it impacts more than 335 Institutions engaging the entire MSI community and provides a model for building the CI and e-science knowledge and skills of MSI faculty and growing an inclusive national CI-enabled research infrastructure. The project advances the knowledge associated with building technology-mediated, multi-institutional and cross ethnic research and educational collaborations critical for CI development.
