The National Science Foundation provides incredible opportunities for our youth, while giving our higher education faculty the resources they need to inspire students to pursue challenging projects in their respective fields. Im glad to see this funding heading to Marshall University, Shepherd University, and West Virginia University. Im proud of the work that continues to be done at our colleges and universities, and I will continue to advocate for the resources they need to be successful, Senator Capito said.

The National Science Foundation continues to be a strong partner for the Mountain State and our universities, investing in important research and fostering hands-on educational opportunities for students across the state. I am pleased NSF is investing in seven different research initiatives at West Virginia University, Marshall University and Shepherd University, and I look forward to seeing the impacts of these studies. As a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, I will continue to fight for funding to support critical research here in West Virginia, Senator Manchin said.
