This three-year $600,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports a Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) site at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC). The RET site aims to provide ten high school STEM teachers from Chicago public and private schools with a six-week summer immersion in cutting-edge computational modeling and simulation (CMS) research across disciplines including nanotechnology, data-driven modeling, drug design, and biomechanics. Through this program, the teachers will collaborate with UIC faculty, graduate students, and industry professionals to develop inquiry-based CMS-focused lesson plans and learning modules to be integrated into their classrooms in the following academic year. The developed materials will be disseminated through the UIC and Chicago Public Schools websites, as well as the NSF repository, to promote the incorporation of CMS techniques in pre-college STEM education and address the growing need for computational skills in the future U.S. workforce.
