Through the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), this...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) grant award for $749,861 aims to develop effective curricular materials and an integrated learning platform to overcome programming barriers and increase data science education for non-computing students. The 3-year project, led by the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in collaboration with Howard University and Bryn Mawr College, will: (1) create an integrated teaching and learning platform; (2) develop course modules...
This $400,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports Albany State University, a historically Black university, in enhancing its biology and forensic science curricula by infusing data science competencies. The project aims to train faculty in data science techniques, implement data science modules in existing courses, develop new upper-level data science-focused courses, and engage students in course-based and mentored...
This federal Project Grant award of $331,452, awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to identify essential competencies for data science literacy and how undergraduate students learn these fundamentals in introductory data science courses. The project, titled "MCA: CULTIVATING A LEADER IN STATISTICS AND DATA SCIENCE EDUCATION THROUGH STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS," will investigate pedagogical choices and learning pathways to...
This two-year, $299,984 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program aims to strengthen data science education and workforce development opportunities in Chicago. Loyola University of Chicago's Institute for Racial Justice will partner with Arrupe College and the Chicago Youth Learning Organization to design a data science pathway for underrepresented scholars. Undergraduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty will...
This $1.5 million project grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program will fund the Collaborative Research: HDR DSC: Delaware and Mid-Atlantic Data Science Corps. Led by the University of Delaware as the primary awardee, the project will establish a data science corps through September 2024 to provide data resources, training programs, and research opportunities. Delaware State University and Lincoln University will receive sub-awards...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) award under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program provides $999,891 to Harry S Truman College, part of the City Colleges of Chicago, to develop and implement data science courses and curriculum. The project aims to improve access to data science education for Hispanic students at community colleges, where a disproportionate number of underrepresented minority students in STEM fields begin their college studies. The key products and services to be...
