The Nuclear Security Science and Technology Consortium (NSSTC) was awarded a five-year, $5,000,000 renewal grant from the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) through the Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program to continue developing the next generation of world-class STEM professionals. This initiative aims to meet the national security demands of today and the future, while strengthening key science, technology, and engineering capabilities to support the NNSA’s vital mission of protecting the American people by maintaining a safe, secure, and effective nuclear weapons stockpile. The NSSTC provides students with practical experience and training through research projects and experiential learning.
