Rowan University received a $684,701 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to support the Growing Rowan's Environmental Education Network in Southern New Jersey (GREEN-SJ) initiative. The grant will fund GREEN-SJ from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025. Under the initiative, Rowan University will partner with Rowan College of South Jersey Cumberland Campus, an Hispanic-serving institution, to build a diverse geoscience workforce in southern New Jersey focused on the growing offshore wind energy sector. Key services include aligning environmental science coursework between the institutions to support student transfers, providing orientation programs for transferring students, and engaging students in internship, research, and career preparation activities. Mentorship and workshops on cultural diversity and awareness will also help establish a welcoming learning environment for students from historically marginalized communities. Program evaluation and documentation of lessons learned will aid similar workforce development efforts elsewhere. Ultimately, GREEN-SJ aims to diversify the green energy and environmental science fields in southern New Jersey and beyond.
