The Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program (MSIPP) is designed to build a sustainable pipeline between the Department of Energy's (DOE) sites/labs and minority-serving institutions in STEM disciplines, and bring a heightened awareness of NNSA plants and laboratories to institutions with a common interest in STEM research fields.
Currently, MSIPP supports 17 consortium-based teams consisting of participants from select institutions. These teams bring together institutions that share interests in STEM research areas and who can utilize the facilities and technology available at DOE/NNSA’s labs and sites. Please see consortia below:
- Additive Manufacturing Post Processing Partnership
- Advanced Manufacturing Network
- Advanced Sensors Technologies for Applications in Electrical Engineering - Research and Innovation excellence Consortium
- Application of Artificial Intelligence to Cybersecurity for Protecting National Critical Infrastructure
- Consortium enabling In- and Ex-Situ-Quality Control of Additive Manufacturing (QCAM)
- Consortium for High Energy Density Science
- Consortium for Laser-based Analysis of Nuclear and Environmental Materials
- Consortium for Nuclear Security Advanced Manufacturing Enhanced by Machine Learning
- Consortium Hybrid Resilient Energy Systems
- Consortium on Nuclear Security Technologies
- Energy Sciences: Experimental and Modeling Consortium
- Growing STEMs Consortium: Training the Next Generation of Engineers for the DOE/NNSA Workforce
- Partnership for Proactive Cybersecurity Training
- Partnership for Research and Education Consortium in Ceramics and Polymers
- Pipeline Development of Skilled Workforce in STEM through Advanced Manufacturing
- Scholarly Partnership in Nuclear Security
- Successful Training and Effective Pipelines to National Laboratories with STEM Core
