西班牙裔学院和大学协会（HACU）获得了暑期实习支持奖。HACU是一个全国性的非营利组织，在通过该组织提供暑期实习机会方面有着悠久而杰出的记录。国家实习计划（NIP）。通过NIP，在美国和波多黎各各地有学术准备的学生通过各种联邦政府机构获得了高质量的实习任务。参与者将接触到联邦部门的各种职业选择，作为帮助学生做出明智的职业选择和巩固职业目标的基础。通过与公共和私营部门合作伙伴合作，自1992年NIP启动以来，HACU已经成功地为10,000多名学生提供了实习机会。为了继续与HACU的合作，参与的政府机构美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation）将提供具有挑战性的任务，以扩大追求科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）职业的学生的视野。实习创造了一个独特的机会，帮助准备和参与未来的STEM劳动力，激励他们参与科学和工程研究的前沿。通过整合研究和教育，基金会积极参与加强人力资本基础设施，以实现卓越的STEM教育和研究。

The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU) is the recipient of an award for summer internship support. HACU, a national, non-profit organization, has a long and distinguished record of providing summer internship opportunities through the organization?s National Internship Program (NIP). Through NIP, academically prepared students throughout the US and Puerto Rico have received quality internship assignments through various federal government agencies.

By partnering with public and private sector partners, HACU has been able to successfully place over 10,000 students in internships since NIP commenced in 1992. In an effort to continue its collaboration with HACU, the National Science Foundation, a participating government agency, will offer challenging assignments that will broaden the exposure of students pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Internships create a unique opportunity to assist in the preparation and engagement of a future STEM workforce motivated to participate at the frontiers of science and engineering research. By integrating research and education, the Foundation actively participates in strengthening the human capital infrastructure to achieve excellence in STEM education and research.
