SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Full Text of Announcement

I. Funding Opportunity Description

    Purpose of Program: The GAANN Program provides grants to academic 
departments and programs of institutions of higher education (IHEs) to 
support graduate fellowships for students with excellent academic 
records who demonstrate financial need and plan to pursue the highest 
degree available in their course of study at the institution.
    Background: In accordance with section 712(b) of the Higher 
Education Act of 1965, as amended (20 U.S.C. 1135a), the Secretary 
designates areas of national need following a required consultation. 
Four broad areas have been identified as national needs:
    1. Computer and Information Sciences: Cybersecurity, secure 
computer programming, and artificial intelligence.
    2. Rebuilding the Nation's Infrastructure: The Administration's 
Legislative Outline for Rebuilding Infrastructure in America \1\ 
identifies a need for public and private investment in rebuilding the 
Nation's infrastructure. To meet this goal, the Nation needs to expand 
the prepared workforce to ensure timely planning, delivery, and 
inspection of infrastructure projects. Therefore, there is a national 
need to increase the number of professional engineers able to 
facilitate a wide range of infrastructure projects.

    3. National Civic Literacy: Studies of American adults' knowledge 
of American history and institutions have demonstrated low levels of 
knowledge and that ``greater civic knowledge trumps a college degree as 
the leading factor in encouraging active civic

[[Page 36570]]

engagement.'' \2\ In order to improve civic engagement, Americans need 
a clear understanding of American history and the Western traditions 
that gave rise to the American Republic.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    4. Workforce Development: The Nation needs innovative solutions 
that enable individuals to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to 
meet workforce demands through shorter-term programs that align with 
the needs of employers. Professional Science Master's (PSM) degrees 
provide such a solution within graduate education. To better meet the 
Nation's needs in computer and information sciences and in engineering, 
PSM programs are included as terminal degree programs chosen for these 
areas in this competition.
    Priority: This competition includes one absolute priority. In 
accordance with 34 CFR 75.105(b)(2)(ii), this priority is from the 
regulations for this program (34 CFR 648.33(a) and Appendix to part 
648--Academic Areas).
    Absolute Priority: For FY 2018 and any subsequent year for which we 
make awards from the list of unfunded applications from this 
competition, this priority is an absolute priority. Under 34 CFR 
75.105(c)(3), we consider only applications that meet this priority.

    2. Review and Selection Process: We remind potential applicants 
that in reviewing applications in any discretionary grant competition, 
the Secretary may consider, under 34 CFR 75.217(d)(3), the past 
performance of the applicant in carrying out a previous award, such as 
the applicant's use of funds, achievement of project objectives, and 
compliance with grant conditions. The Secretary may also consider 
whether the applicant failed to submit a timely performance report or 
submitted a report of unacceptable quality.
    In addition, in making a competitive grant award, the Secretary 
requires various assurances, including those applicable to Federal 
civil rights laws that prohibit discrimination in programs or 
activities receiving Federal financial assistance from the Department 
of Education (34 CFR 100.4, 104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).
    Additional factors we consider in selecting an application for an 
award are in 34 CFR 648.32.
    3. Risk Assessment and Specific Conditions: Consistent with 2 CFR 
200.205, before awarding grants under this program the Department 
conducts a review of the risks posed by applicants. Under 2 CFR 
3474.10, the Secretary may impose specific conditions and, in 
appropriate circumstances, high-risk conditions on a grant if the 
applicant or grantee is not financially stable; has a history of 
unsatisfactory performance; has a financial or other management system 
that does not meet the standards in 2 CFR part 200, subpart D; has not 
fulfilled the conditions of a prior grant; or is otherwise not 
responsible.
    4. Integrity and Performance System: If you are selected under this 
competition to receive an award that over the course of the project 
period may exceed the simplified acquisition threshold (currently 
$150,000), under 2 CFR 200.205(a)(2) we must make a judgment about your 
integrity, business ethics, and record of performance under Federal 
awards--that is, the risk posed by you as an applicant--before we make 
an award. In doing so, we must consider any information about you that 
is in the integrity and performance system (currently referred to as 
the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System 
(FAPIIS)), accessible through the System for Award Management. You may 
review and comment on any information about yourself that a Federal 
agency previously entered and that is currently in FAPIIS.
    Please note that, if the total value of your currently active 
grants, cooperative agreements, and procurement contracts from the 
Federal Government exceeds $10,000,000, the reporting requirements in 2 
CFR part 200, appendix XII, require you to report certain integrity 
information to FAPIIS semiannually. Please review the requirements in 2 
CFR part 200, appendix XII, if this grant plus all the other Federal 
funds you receive exceed $10,000,000.

VI. Award Administration Information

    1. Award Notices: If your application is successful, we notify your 
U.S. Representative and U.S. Senators and send you a Grant Award 
Notification (GAN), or we may send you an email containing a link to 
access an electronic version of your GAN. We also may notify you 
informally.
    If your application is not evaluated or not selected for funding, 
we notify you.

[[Page 36573]]

    2. Administrative and National Policy Requirements: We identify 
administrative and national policy requirements in the application 
package and reference these and other requirements in the Applicable 
Regulations section of this notice.
    We reference the regulations outlining the terms and conditions of 
an award in the Applicable Regulations section of this notice and 
include these and other specific conditions in the GAN. The GAN also 
incorporates your approved application as part of your binding 
commitments under the grant.
    3. Reporting: (a) If you apply for a grant under this competition, 
you must ensure that you have in place the necessary processes and 
systems to comply with the reporting requirements in 2 CFR part 170 
should you receive funding under the competition. This does not apply 
if you have an exception under 2 CFR 170.110(b).
    (b) At the end of your project period, you must submit a final 
performance report, including financial information, as directed by the 
Secretary. If you receive a multiyear award, you must submit an annual 
performance report that provides the most current performance and 
financial expenditure information as directed by the Secretary under 34 
CFR 75.118 and 34 CFR 648.66. To view the performance report currently 
required, visit http://www2.ed.gov/programs/gaann/performance.html. 
Please be advised that the posted report requirements are for 
informational purposes only and do not reflect the actual reporting 
instrument that you will use should you receive a GAANN grant. The 
Secretary also may require more frequent performance reports under 34 
CFR 75.720(c). For specific requirements on reporting, please visit 
www.ed.gov/fund/grant/apply/appforms/appforms.html.
    (c) Grantees will be required to submit a supplement to the Final 
Performance Report two years after the expiration of their GAANN grant. 
The purpose of this supplement is to identify and report the 
educational outcome of each GAANN fellow.
    4. Performance Measures: Under the Government Performance and 
Results Act of 1993, the following measures will be used by the 
Department in assessing the performance of the GAANN Program:
    (1) The percentage of GAANN fellows completing the terminal degree 
in the designated areas of national need.
    (2) The median time to completion of master's and doctoral degrees 
for GAANN fellows.
    (3) The percentage of GAANN fellows who have placements in faculty 
or professional positions in the area of their studies within one year 
of completing the degree.
    If funded, you will be required to collect and report data in your 
project's annual performance report (34 CFR 75.590) on those measures 
and steps taken toward improving performance toward those outcomes. 
Consequently, applicants are advised to include these outcome measures 
in conceptualizing the design, implementation, and evaluation of their 
proposed projects. These outcome measures should be included in the 
project evaluation plan, in addition to measures of your progress 
toward the goals and objectives specific to your project.
    All grantees will be expected to submit an annual performance 
report documenting their success in addressing these performance 
measures.
    5. Continuation Awards: In making a continuation award under 34 CFR 
75.253, the Secretary considers, among other things: Whether a grantee 
has made substantial progress in achieving the goals and objectives of 
the project; whether the grantee has expended funds in a manner that is 
consistent with its approved application and budget; and, if the 
Secretary has established performance measurement requirements, the 
performance targets in the grantee's approved application.
    In making a continuation award, the Secretary also considers 
whether the grantee is operating in compliance with the assurances in 
its approved application, including those applicable to Federal civil 
rights laws that prohibit discrimination in programs or activities 
receiving Federal financial assistance from the Department (34 CFR 
100.4, 104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).
