The National Science Foundation awarded a $321,627 Project Grant to the University of the District of Columbia under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049). The grant will fund the acquisition of a new x-ray diffractometer to advance materials research and education at primarily undergraduate and minority-serving institutions in Washington, D.C. through July 2024. The diffractometer will enhance understanding of major problems in the physical sciences by expanding the University's research capabilities and strengthening the scientific enterprise through increased knowledge and understanding of materials. The funding will support the University in advancing its educational mission by providing state-of-the-art research equipment for use in both research and instruction over the three-year award period.
