The Science and Technology Center program is run by the Office of Integrative Activities of the National Science Foundation. The STCs are "innovative, potentially transformative, complex research and education projects that require large-scale, long-term awards. STCs conduct world-class research through partnerships among academic institutions, national laboratories, industrial organizations, and/or other public/private entities. STCs provide a means to undertake significant investigations at the interfaces of disciplines and/or fresh approaches within disciplines."
