- This Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources, CFDA 47.076) program provides $1,487,350 to the University of Florida to engage approximately 500 high school students and 25 teachers from under-resourced communities in integrated computer science and engineering education focused on microelectronics and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. The project aims to broaden access to these emerging STEM fields...
This $200,000 National Science Foundation project grant under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support the development of gamified learning modules focused on computing hardware fundamentals. The University of Kansas Center for Research Inc., in collaboration with the University of Florida, will design engaging and collaborative games targeting key hardware concepts. Each module will introduce and exercise one fundamental principle through hands-on experimentation. Collectively, the modules aim to provide students with a systems-level perspective of modern electronics. The curriculum will be evaluated at two universities and high schools. Additionally, similar modules will be created for high school students to help recruit more electrical and computer engineering undergraduates. Project outcomes, including the hardware platform, course materials and modules, will be shared with educators and the semiconductor industry through workshops and online portals. The goal is to better prepare students for emerging technologies while diversifying the technology workforce.
