DOE

The program objectives are: 

1. educate and train the next generation of engineers and scientists to develop a highly-skilled, inclusive, and competitive U.S. workforce and economy;
2. support novel, early-stage research at U.S. colleges and universities that delivers integrated solutions related to fossil energy and carbon management and enable transformation to a sustainable, net-zero greenhouse gas future; 
3. increase research and development opportunities for underrepresented and structurally marginalized communities within the U.S. and tap into the innovative and diverse thinking of student researchers at minority serving institutions of higher learning; and, 
4. ensure that students are being equipped with cutting-edge, translatable skillsets that will allow them to contribute to the U.S. workforce and greater economy over the course of a longstanding and enduring career.
