Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 237 / Thursday, December 10, 2015 / Notices
significant research achievements in
STEM and STEM education.
The Graduate Research Fellowship
Program uses several sources of
information in assessing and
documenting program performance and
impact. These sources include reports
from program evaluation, the GRFP
Committee of Visitors, and data
compiled from the applications. In
addition, GRFP Fellows submit annual
activity reports to NSF.
The GRFP Completion report is
proposed as a continuing component of
the annual reporting requirement for the
program. This report, submitted by the
GRFP Institution, certifies the
completion status of Fellows at the
institution (e.g., in progress, completed,
graduated, transferred, or withdrawn).
The existing Completion Report, Grants
Roster Report, and the Program Expense
Report comprise the GRFP Annual
Reporting requirements from the
Grantee GRFP institution. Through
submission of the Completion Report to
NSF GRFP institutions certify the
current status of all GRFP Fellows at the
institution as either: In Progress,
Graduated, Transferred, or Withdrawn.
For Graduate Fellows with Graduated
status, the graduation date is a required
reporting element. Collection of this
information allows the program to
obtain information on the current status
of Fellows, the number and/or
percentage of Graduate Fellowship
recipients who complete a science or
engineering graduate degree, and an
estimate of time to degree completion.
The report must be certified and
submitted by the institution’s
designated Coordinating Official (CO)
annually.
Use of the Information: The
completion report data provides NSF
with accurate Fellow information
regarding completion of the Fellows’
graduate programs. The data is used by
NSF in its assessment of the impact of
its investments in the GRFP, and
informs its program management.
Estimate of Burden: Overall average
time will be 15 minutes per Fellow
(8,500 Fellows) for a total of 2,215 hours
for all institutions with Fellows. An
estimate for institutions with 12 or
fewer Fellows will be 1 hour,
institutions with 12–48 fellows will be
4 hours, and institutions over 48
Fellows will be 10 hours.
Respondents: Academic institutions
with NSF Graduate Fellows (GRFP
Institutions).
Estimated Number of Responses per
Report: One from each of the 271
current GRFP institutions.
