The Historically Black Colleges and Universities - Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) supports conferences and workshops that seek to increase the research and education capacity of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students and faculty at HBCUs. Lincoln University in Missouri, in partnership with the University of Missouri – Columbia, will hold a workshop to address issues of STEM teacher recruitment, retention, and lack of diversity. University faculty and administrators, principals, superintendents, and teachers will participate in the two-day student conference on May 19-20, 2021 at Lincoln University. Plans include changing the meeting to a virtual format, if needed. The conference activities will be guided by three goals: 1) to provide structure and guidance for an online alternative certification program for mathematics and science teachers; 2) to develop a multi-pronged recruitment plan for the alternative certification program; and 3) to identify a viable research collaboration between Lincoln University and the University of Missouri related to the alternative certification of mathematics and science teachers of color. The conference will have substantial impact on the partnership and collaborations between mathematics and science educators at Lincoln University and the University of Missouri. The inclusion of state representatives, as well as various school and community stakeholders, at the conference can lead to broader impacts across the state of Missouri.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.

历史黑人学院和大学本科课程(HBCU-UP)支持旨在提高HBCU科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)学生和教职员工的研究和教育能力的会议和研讨会。密苏里州的林肯大学将与密苏里大学哥伦比亚分校合作举办一次研讨会，以解决STEM教师的招聘、留住和缺乏多样性的问题。大学教职员工、管理人员、校长、校长和教师将参加2021年5月19日至20日在林肯大学举行的为期两天的学生会议。计划包括，如果需要，将会议改为虚拟形式。会议活动将以三个目标为指导：1)为数学和科学教师在线替代认证计划提供结构和指导；2)为替代认证计划制定多管齐下的招聘计划；3)确定林肯大学和密苏里大学之间有关数学和科学教师替代认证的可行研究合作。这次会议将对林肯大学和密苏里大学数学和科学教育工作者之间的伙伴关系和合作产生重大影响。州代表以及学校和社区的不同利益相关者参加会议可能会在密苏里州产生更广泛的影响。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
