CC* CIRA: Building Research Innovation at Community Colleges
NSF Award #2019136, CC* CIRA: Building Research Innovation at Community Colleges,
aims to improve connectivity at participating colleges, provide training, and create
an outreach program to expand the scope of the award.
One of BRICCs main objectives is to develop a cohesive Cyberinfrastructure (CI) framework
that will improve research and education (R&E) CI capacity at two-year institutions
of higher education (community colleges) nationwide. In years when the NSF CC* program,
or similar NSF programs accepts proposals, the BRICCs group will offer the community
college campuses details about the proposal process.
This grant provides opportunities for community colleges to participate in future
grants. For more information, please contact info@tx-learn.net.
