SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

[[Page 64461]]

    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Boren Scholarship and 
Fellowship Survey; OMB Control Number 0704-BSFS.
    Type of Request: New.
    Number of Respondents: 1,299.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 1,299.
    Average Burden per Response: 30 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 649.5 hours.
    Needs and Uses: The Defense Language and National Security 
Education Office (DLNSEO) of the DoD is requesting OMB clearance for 
the Boren Scholarship and Fellowship Survey. DLNSEO has contracted with 
the RAND Corporation to conduct an evaluation of the Boren Scholarship 
and Fellowship Awards Program. The Boren Awards program, established in 
1991, was authorized under the David L. Boren National Security 
Education Act, as amended, Public Law 102-183. The Boren Awards provide 
funding for long-term, overseas, immersive study to U.S. undergraduate 
and graduate students who are committed to public service. Boren 
awardees study languages and cultures that are critical to U.S. 
national security as part of their degree programs; in exchange, they 
agree to use the skills within DoD or other Federal agencies by seeking 
and securing Federal employment for at least one year after completing 
their degrees. The Boren Awards program was last evaluated in 2014 
using a survey and interviews to determine how the program had affected 
the careers of those who had received Boren awards. Since the 2014 
survey, more than 2,000 new Boren awardees have completed the Federal 
employment service commitment, yielding an alumni base of more than 
4,000. The OUSD(P&R) contracted with the RAND National Defense Research 
Institute to conduct a new program evaluation, which would include a 
web-based survey of alumni, discussions with key stakeholders, and 
comparison of past data with new data to be collected during this 
project. The findings will support the OUSD(P&R) in evaluating the 
outcomes of the program, enabling comparisons between past and more-
recent outcomes, and ultimately enhancing the Boren Awards' 
effectiveness in building and sustaining a federal workforce of 
diverse, language and culture-enabled individuals.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Once.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
