Institute of Education Sciences
Biennial Report to Congress 2013-2014 and 2015-2016
January 2017
U.S. Department of Education
1
OVERVIEW
The Institute of Education Sciences (the Institute) is the statistics, research, and evaluation arm of the
U.S. Department of Education. Authorized by the Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002 (ESRA), the
Institute provides scientific evidence on which to ground education practice and policy and shares this
information in formats that are useful and accessible to educators, parents, policymakers, researchers,
and the public.
As required by ESRA, this report includes information on each grant, contract, and cooperative
agreement in excess of $100,000 awarded through the Institute’s four national education centers. The
report summarizes activities by center, type of award, fiscal year, and by the unit or program under
which the activity is supported. The report also provides the award number, recipient, and amount of
award. Consistent with ESRA, additional information on each grant awarded by the Institute is available
in a searchable, electronic database on the IES Funding Opportunities Web page using the Search
Funded Research Grants and Contracts feature. Additional information on contracts awarded by the
Department can be found on the Contracts and Acquisitions Management Web page, using the Active
Contracts spreadsheet.
This is the sixth report and covers activities for fiscal years 2013 through 2016 (October 1, 2012 to
September 30, 2016).
