The Future of STEM Scholars Initiative (FOSSI) was established in November of 2020 through a partnership between the American Chemistry Council (ACC), American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), Chemours, and HBCU Week Foundation, who recognized and wanted to change the lack of diversity throughout the STEM workforce. This national industry-wide program seeks to increase the number of underrepresented professionals in the STEM workforce by providing scholarships to students pursuing preferred STEM degrees at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
