Title of Collection: NSF INTERN 

Program Assessment. 

OMB Number: 3145–NEW. 

Type of Request: Intent to seek 

approval to establish an information 

collection. 

Abstract: Fostering the growth of a 

globally competitive and diverse 

research workforce and advancing the 

scientific and innovation skills of the 

Nation is a strategic objective of the 

National Science Foundation (NSF). The 

Nation’s global competitiveness 

depends critically on the readiness of 

the Nation’s Science, Technology, 

Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) 

workforce and NSF seeks to continue to 

invest in programs that directly advance 

this workforce. As part of this effort, 

NSF invests in a number of graduate 

student preparedness activities to 

ensure they are well-prepared for the 

21st century STEM Workforce, and a 

supplemental funding opportunity is 

available in fiscal year FY 2021 to 

provide support for graduate students 

through non-academic research 

internships (INTERN Program) in any 

sector of the U.S. economy. 

The goal of the INTERN program is 

three-fold: 

1. To provide graduate students with 

the opportunity to augment their 

research assistantships with nonacademic research internship activities 

and training opportunities that will 

complement their academic research 

training. 

2. To allow graduate students to 

pursue activities aimed at acquiring 

professional development experience 

that will enhance their preparation for 

multiple career pathways after 

graduation. 

3. To encourage the participation of 

graduate students from groups that have 

traditionally been underrepresented and 

underserved in the STEM enterprise: 

Women, persons with disabilities, 

African Americans/Blacks, Hispanic 

Americans, American Indian, Alaska 

Natives. 

In order to support the agency’s 

mission and continue meeting the 

program’s goals, we are asking the 

graduate students who participated in 

the INTERN program to report the 

following information: 

• Logistics of the Internship 

Æ Start and end date 

Æ Principal Investigator supporting 

the internship 

Æ Host organization 

Æ Host mentor 

• Internship Experience 

Æ Hours worked 

Æ Job Training 

Æ Interaction with host mentor 

Æ Location of the host organization
