plans, which will be used as a basis for 

performance review and determining 

the level of continued funding. To 

support this review and the 

management of a Center, STCs will be 

required to develop a set of management 

and performance indicators for 

submission annually to NSF via an NSF 

evaluation technical assistance 

contractor. These indicators are both 

quantitative and descriptive and may 

include, for example, the characteristics 

of center personnel and students; 

sources of financial support and in-kind 

support; expenditures by operational 

component; characteristics of industrial 

and/or other sector participation; 

research activities; education activities; 

knowledge transfer activities; patents, 

licenses; publications; degrees granted 

to students involved in Center activities; 

descriptions of significant advances and 

other outcomes of the STC effort. Part of 

this reporting will take the form of a 

database which will be owned by the 

institution and eventually made 

available to an evaluation contractor. 

This database will capture specific 

information to demonstrate progress 

towards achieving the goals of the 

program. Such reporting requirements 

will be included in the cooperative 

agreement which is binding between the 

academic institution and the NSF. 

Each Center’s annual report will 

address the following categories of 

activities: (1) Research, (2) education, 

(3) knowledge transfer, (4) partnerships, 

(5) diversity, (6) management and (7) 

budget issues. 

For each of the categories the report 

will describe overall objectives for the 

year, problems the Center has 

encountered in making progress towards 

goals, anticipated problems in the 

following year, and specific outputs and 

outcomes. 

Use of the Information: NSF will use 

the information to continue funding of 

the Centers, and to evaluate the progress 

of the program. 

Estimate of Burden: 100 hours per 

center for 12 centers for a total of 1,200 

hours. 

Respondents: Non-profit institutions; 

federal government. 

Estimated Number of Responses per 

Report: One from each of the twelve 

centers. 

Dated: December 10, 2018.
