Broadening Participation Research Centers provide support to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to conduct broadening participation research and serve as national hubs for the rigorous study and broad dissemination of the critical theories, structures and pedagogies, as well as culturally sensitive interventions that contribute to the success of HBCUs in educating African American STEM undergraduates. The collaborative project at the University of the Virgin Islands, Fielding Graduate University, North Carolina A&T State University and the Association of American Colleges and Universities seeks to formally establish the Center for the Advancement of STEM Leadership (CASL).The United States continues to lag other nations in preparing sufficient numbers of its citizens to fill STEM workforce needs. For the US to remain globally competitive, it must continue to broaden participation in STEM education at all levels. Among higher education institutions, only HBCUs have a sustained record of consistently producing a diverse group of graduates in the STEM fields who are prepared for further education and the STEM workforce. Through research, CASL seeks to determine how the leadership of HBCUs has contributed to this consistent sustained success and then to use that knowledge to prepare future leaders. Through disseminating its research findings and its leadership development model, ultimately CASL will allow all of higher education, and thus American society, to benefit from the experience and lessons of HBCUs in broadening participation.CASL uses a groundbreaking scholarly approach based in the success of HBCUs in broadening participation while also taking advantage of established and culturally-responsive research and theoretical frameworks. CASL is thus able to generate, analyze, and interpret broadening participation research questions about academic leadership. Designed to be the nation's premier research center examining and determining the kind of academic leadership that broadens the participation of African Americans and other underrepresented groups in STEM, CASL will use its knowledge to contribute to the development of next-generation HBCU leaders who can themselves contribute to continued broadening participation efforts.CASL's three objectives are: 1) to examine how intuitive, unwritten codes of excellence in leadership result in the broadening participation success of HBCUs and to integrate this knowledge into STEM higher education reform; 2) to provide a community of scholars with a world-class leadership development program that integrates personal and institutional histories into broadening participation research and practice; and 3) to assimilate the HBCU institutional narrative into the national undergraduate STEM reform knowledge base through mainstream outreach and knowledge transfer outlets. To accomplish these goals, CASL's initiatives include its empirical research agenda; strategic initiatives including occasional papers, study groups, and the STEM Central online platform; and its leadership development program involving both didactic and action learning components. A robust external evaluation will monitor and assess progress on all objectives, providing both formative and summative assessment of all Center activities.This Broadening Participation Research Center is also funded by the NSF's Alliances for Graduate Education and the Professoriate, which targets increasing the number of historically underrepresented minority faculty in STEM disciplines.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

扩大参与研究中心为历史上的黑人学院和大学（HBCU）提供了支持，以进行扩大参与研究，并充当国家枢纽，以进行严格的研究和广泛传播批判理论，结构和教学法，以及文化敏感的干预措施，以及对非洲人在教育非裔美国人造成教育不足的人教育中的成功。 维尔京群岛大学的合作项目，北卡罗来纳州A＆T州立大学菲尔德研究生大学和美国大学协会寻求正式建立STEM领导力发展中心（CASL）。 为了使美国保持全球竞争力，它必须继续扩大各个级别的STEM教育的参与。 在高等教育机构中，只有HBCU在STEM领域中始终如一地培养各种各样的毕业生，这些毕业生为进一步的教育和STEM劳动力做好了准备。 通过研究，CASL试图确定HBCU的领导如何为这一持续的持续成功做出贡献，然后利用这些知识为未来的领导者做好准备。 通过传播其研究结果及其领导力发展模型，CASL最终将允许所有高等教育（因此是美国社会）受益于HBCUS在扩大参与方面的经验和教训。CASL使用HBCUS在扩大参与方面取得成功的开创性的学术方法，同时还利用了建立和文化的研究和文化上的框架和逆向性的研究和理论上的研究。 因此，CASL能够生成，分析和解释有关学术领导的扩大参与研究问题。 CASL旨在成为美国首要的研究中心，以研究和确定扩大非洲裔美国人和其他代表性不足的群体的参与的学术领导力，CASL将利用其知识来促进下一代HBCU领导者的发展，他们可以继续努力拓宽参与的范围，以范围扩大参与的范围。 HBCU并将这些知识纳入STEM高等教育改革； 2）为学者社区提供世界一流的领导力发展计划，该计划将个人和机构历史整合到扩大参与研究和实践中； 3）通过主流宣传和知识转移渠道将HBCU的机构叙事吸收到民族本科STEM改革知识基础中。 为了实现这些目标，CASL的举措包括其经验研究议程；战略举措，包括偶尔的论文，研究小组和STEM中央在线平台；及其领导力发展计划涉及教学和动作学习组成部分。 强大的外部评估将监控和评估所有目标的进展，同时提供所有中心活动的形成性和总结性评估。该研究中心也由NSF的研究生教育联盟和教授的范围资助，​​该联盟的目标是通过历史上增加的少数派在STEM奖励中的数量来提高NSF的数量，并以STEM奖励表示了NSF的统计，并且已代表NSF的统计数据，并且已代表NSF的统计数据。基金会的智力优点和更广泛的影响评论标准。
