Opportunity Information: Apply for 693JJ322NF5202 2023
The Administration of the Dwight David Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship Program (DDETFP) Local Competition at Designated Institutions of Higher Education is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), listed under CFDA 20.215. It is designed to help specific colleges and universities run a local version of the DDETFP fellowship competition on their own campuses, with the larger goal of building a stronger and more diverse pipeline of future transportation professionals and researchers across the United States.
At its core, this opportunity focuses on students who attend an Institution of Higher Education (IHE) that is either a Minority Serving Institution (MSI) or a community college. The program is meant to spark and sustain student interest in transportation by supporting transportation-related research, encouraging students to pursue transportation-focused academic pathways, and helping them transition into the transportation workforce. The fellowship also emphasizes strengthening the overall transportation field by expanding the breadth and diversity of perspectives and expertise represented in the national transportation community.
The funding supported through the DDETFP Local Competition can be used to provide fellowships for students pursuing transportation-related disciplines at multiple academic levels. This includes associate, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degree programs, and it is intentionally broad in terms of transportation scope, covering all modes of transportation rather than limiting participation to a single mode or specialty area. In practice, this means participating institutions can support students interested in a wide range of transportation topics, as long as the work is transportation-related.
Eligible applicants are described generally as "others," with the main eligible entities being MSIs and community colleges that want to administer the local DDETFP competition at their institution. To participate, the institution must be accredited by a federally recognized accrediting agency and must be located within the United States or its territories. Rather than being a student-applied grant, the structure here is institution-focused: the school applies for funding and, if awarded, administers a local fellowship competition and manages the distribution of fellowship support to students.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number 693JJ322NF5202 2023, with an original posting (creation) date of February 17, 2023, and an original closing date of March 24, 2023. The award ceiling is listed as $50,000 per award, and the program anticipated making about 50 awards. Taken together, these details suggest a program designed for broad participation by many qualifying institutions, each receiving a relatively modest award intended to directly support student fellowship activity and local program administration.
Overall, this grant opportunity is best understood as a way for MSIs and community colleges to bring a federally supported transportation fellowship program directly to their students, reducing barriers to entry into transportation careers and research while helping the transportation sector develop talent that more closely reflects the diversity of the communities it serves.Apply for 693JJ322NF5202 2023
