About this award

Navajo Technical University (NTU), a tribal university and 1994 Land Grant College located in Crownpoint, New Mexico, was awarded a $1.18M cooperative agreement by a Civilian federal agency effective September 1, 2021, with completion targeted for August 31, 2025. This award does not utilize a set-aside designation. The cooperative agreement responds to two interrelated broadening participation challenges in the engineering field, aligning with NTU's strategic focus on expanding access to STEM education and research opportunities within tribal communities. As America's only ABET-accredited Tribal College University, NTU brings distinctive capabilities in integrating Navajo Traditional Knowledge with Western scientific approaches while serving over 2,000 students across five campuses.

The award supports NTU's commitment to broadening participation in engineering through research, education, and workforce development initiatives. Given NTU's established track record with federal agencies including the National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, and Department of Defense on advanced manufacturing, technology transfer, and STEM curriculum development, this cooperative agreement likely leverages the university's expertise in creating educational pathways and research opportunities that increase engineering participation among underrepresented populations in tribal communities and surrounding regions.
