Full Text of Announcement
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The
Comprehensive Program supports
innovative grants and cooperative
agreements to improve postsecondary
education. It supports reforms,
innovations, and significant
improvements of postsecondary
education that respond to problems of
national significance and serve as
national models.
Priorities: Under this competition, we
are particularly interested in
applications that meet the following
invitational priorities.
Invitational Priorities: For FY 2008
these priorities are invitational
priorities. Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(1) we
do not give an application that meets
these invitational priorities a
competitive or absolute preference over
other applications.
These priorities are:
Invitational Priority 1.
Under this priority we are particularly
interested in projects that have
demonstrated promising results in
earlier evaluations and that will yield
greater impact on a larger scale, using
more rigorous evaluation methodologies
(at least quasi-experimental). It is
expected that the educational activities
and interventions that are the subject of
proposals will have demonstrated
successful outcomes, but not necessarily
with methods that meet the rigor of an
experimental or quasi-experimental
design. Less rigorous methodologies,
VerDate Aug<31>2005
18:33 Mar 20, 2008
Jkt 214001
such as pre- and post-tests and
descriptive or attitudinal studies, were
appropriate for use in generating the
hypotheses that will now be tested on
a larger scale, using more rigorous
methodologies and reducing or
eliminating biases that are common in
smaller, anecdotal studies. Applicants
are encouraged to consult the report by
the Secretary’s Academic
Competitiveness Council (https://
www.ed.gov/about/inits/ed/
competitiveness/acc-mathscience/
index.html) for a more detailed
explanation about appropriate
evaluation methodologies for rigorous
evaluations, defined as being at least at
the quasi-experimental level.
We are particularly interested in
proposals for projects that can be
expanded, scaled up, and evaluated
rigorously to achieve one or more of the
following goals:
(1) To encourage higher levels of
access, persistence, and completion of
graduation requirements for higher
education students.
(2) To align curriculum on a State or
multi-state level between high schools
and colleges, and between two-year and
four-year postsecondary programs, to
ensure continuing academic progress
and transferability of credits.
(3) To improve the mathematics and
science proficiency of postsecondary
students, including pre-service
mathematics and science teachers.
(4) To enable postsecondary students,
including pre-service teachers, to
achieve proficiency in or advanced
proficiency or postsecondary
institutions to develop programs in one
or more critical need languages: Arabic,
Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Russian, and
languages in the Indic, Iranian, and
Turkic language families.
Invitational Priority 2.
Under this priority we are particularly
interested in projects that are designed
to establish, improve, or expand
Professional Science Master’s degree
programs, which combine traditional
academic training with specialized
knowledge and skills needed for work
in science and technology research,
product development, manufacturing, or
related areas. Projects should include
industry partners to ensure that
education and training in the
Professional Science Master’s degree
program align with the expectations and
needs of business and industry.
Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1138–
1138d.
Applicable Regulations: The
Education Department General
Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) in
34 CFR parts 74, 75, 77, 79, 80, 82, 84,
85, 86, 97, 98, and 99.

(IHEs) only.
II. Award Information
Type of Award: Discretionary grants
or cooperative agreements.
Estimated Available Funds:
$2,584,000. The Secretary expects that
grantees will receive funding in FY 2008
for the full project period.
Estimated Range of Awards:
$400,000–$600,000 for a four-year
project period.
Estimated Average Size of Awards:
$500,000 for a four-year project period.
Maximum Award: We will reject any
application that proposes a budget
exceeding $600,000 for a four-year
project period. The Assistant Secretary
for Postsecondary Education may
change the maximum amount through a
notice published in the Federal
Register.
