Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for West Virginia's Workforce Diversity Grants
West Virginia's unique landscape and demographics make it an ideal location for research opportunities that promote workforce diversity in the biomedical, behavioral, clinical, and social sciences. The state's rural nature and limited access to resources in certain areas create a distinct set of challenges and opportunities for grant applicants. As the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission works to advance the state's research capabilities, priority outcomes for these grants will focus on enhancing diversity, improving research quality, and addressing the state's specific needs.
Enhancing Diversity and Research Quality
The West Virginia Clinical and Translational Science Institute (WVCTSI) at West Virginia University is a key partner in promoting research excellence and diversity in the state. By supporting research opportunities that promote workforce diversity, the WVCTSI aims to attract talented researchers from diverse backgrounds, improve the quality of the educational and training environment, and ultimately enhance the state's research capacity. Priority outcomes for these grants will include the recruitment and retention of underrepresented groups in the biomedical, behavioral, clinical, and social sciences workforce. Successful applicants will demonstrate a clear understanding of the state's demographic challenges, including the low population density in rural areas and the need to attract and retain talent.
The state's Appalachian region, with its rich cultural heritage and history, presents both opportunities and challenges for research and workforce development. For example, the region's beekeeping industry is a significant contributor to the state's economy, and research initiatives focused on beekeeping and apiculture could provide valuable opportunities for workforce development and economic growth. Additionally, initiatives that promote small business growth and entrepreneurship in the state, such as those supported by the West Virginia Small Business Development Center, can help to create new opportunities for residents and drive economic development.
Measuring Success in West Virginia
To measure the success of these grants, applicants will be required to track and report on key outcomes, including the number of underrepresented students and researchers supported, the quality of research produced, and the impact on the state's workforce and economy. The West Virginia Humanities Council, among other organizations, may provide valuable insights and resources for applicants seeking to address the state's specific needs and priorities. Successful applicants will also demonstrate a clear understanding of the state's existing research infrastructure and a plan for leveraging resources, such as those provided by the WVCTSI and other state agencies.
In terms of specific metrics, applicants may be required to track outcomes such as the number of research publications, presentations, and awards; the number of students and researchers mentored; and the amount of additional funding leveraged as a result of the grant. By focusing on these priority outcomes, the state of West Virginia can create a more diverse and vibrant research community, drive economic growth, and improve the quality of life for its residents.
