Presidential Awards for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Mentoring (PAESMEM)
The PAESMEM Program seeks to identify outstanding mentoring efforts that enhance the participation of groups (i.e., women, minorities, and persons with disabilities) that are underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The awardees serve as leaders in the national effort to develop fully the Nation's human resources in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Awardees are hosted and recognized at the White House and receive a modest financial award from the National Science Foundation. Program and Individual Awardees are listed in the directories that follow.
