The Minority Research Centers of Excellence (MRCE) program was                  established in FY 1987 to provide substantial resources to                      upgrade the research capabilities of the strongest and most                     productive predominantly minority institutions.  This planning                  grant project lays the foundation for a plan that will increase                 the institution's quality of research and research-related                      training.  Specifically, support for this project will permit the               establishment of an MRCE advisory committee of scientists and                   engineers, local leaders, and industrial representatives who will               assist the institution in evaluating its current and future                     potential for performing meritorious research during the next                   five years.  New Mexico Highlands University is under                           new administrative leadership that will address research,                       educational enrichment and faculty development.  The institution                will study barriers to the entry of minorities into science and                 engineering in public schools, junior colleges, and vocational                  schools. Under the new NMHU administration, this institution's                  assessment of its research capabilities is timely and warranted.                The Foundation has supported this project because of the                        institution's opportunity to provide quality research to minority               faculty and students.
