ATE Impacts 2022-2023

The ATE Impacts book, published every two years by Internet Scout Research Group, showcases all of the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Advanced Technological Education (ATE) centers and selected nominated projects. The NSF ATE program focuses on the education of highly-qualified science and engineering technicians for advanced technology fields. Through the program's grant process, the NSF promotes the improvement of STEM education of science and engineering technicians at the undergraduate and secondary school levels, and in the workforce. This 2022-2023 Impacts book provides data on the NSF ATE program, a foreword by President Joseph R. Biden, an introduction, and summaries of the activities and accomplishments of 28 ATE centers and 33 projects. Website addresses are included for all of the centers and projects. A map is also included that provides geographic location information that is intended to help connect educators, employers, and students with the ATE initiatives in each state. The introduction discusses distinct aspects of the ATE program and the resiliency of the program during the COVID-19 pandemic. The ATE Impacts videos are also highlighted. These videos were created in collaboration with Vox Television and are intended to accompany this ATE Impacts book. These videos share the experiences of ATE Alumni (students, administrators, educators, and industry partners) and the profound impact of ATE iniatives on their lives and careers. The videos are available to view separately
