in Undergraduate Institutions (RUI) and Research Opportunity
Awards (ROA) The specific objectives of RUI are to: (1) support
high-quality research by faculty members at predominantly
undergraduate institutions, (2) strengthen the research
environment in academic departments that are oriented
primarily toward undergraduate instruction, and (3) promote
the integration of research and education. The involvement
of undergraduate students is an important feature of RUI,
providing them with research-rich learning environments.
However, the overriding purpose of RUI is the support of
faculty research, helping to maintain faculty member's
intellectual vibrancy both in the classroom and in the
research community. This program seeks to improve the quality of science,
technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education
for all students, based on educational research and
empirical data concerning needs and opportunities in
undergraduate education and effective ways to address
them. The MRI Program assists in the acquisition or development
of major research instrumentation by U.S. institutions that
