  7. Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) • DUE programs aim to strengthen and ensure the vitality of undergraduate STEM education for: • science, mathematics, or engineering majors; • students in science and engineering technology programs; • future teachers at the elementary and secondary school levels; and • non-science majors seeking scientific and technical literacy.

  8. DUE Programs • STEM Talent Expansion Program (STEP) • Seeks to increase the number of students (U.S. citizens or permanent residents) and receiving associate or baccalaureate degrees in established or emerging fields within science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). • http://www.ehr.nsf.gov/ehr/DUE/programs/step/

  9. DUE Programs • Course, Curriculum and Laboratory Improvement Program (CCLI) • Supports: • The development of new educational materials (EMD track) • The adaptation and implementation of existing educational materials (A&I track) • Large-scale faculty professional development (ND track) • The new development, adaptation or dissemination of tools for assessment of student achievement (ASA track) • http://www.ehr.nsf.gov/ehr/DUE/programs/ccli/
