The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $399,683 Project Grant under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program (CFDA 47.076) to the CAL Poly Corporation, the auxiliary organization of California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. The grant, titled "BEYOND SUCCESS: TRANSFORMING LEARNING BY HELPING STUDENTS TO THRIVE," aims to develop and test competency-based interventions to help engineering and computing students at the university cultivate skills, behaviors, and beliefs that promote their overall well-being and academic success, rather than focusing solely on academic achievement. The project will deploy these "thriving competencies" through mobile applications, classroom activities, and extracurricular programs, particularly targeting underserved students such as underrepresented minorities, first-generation, and low-income learners. The project's broader impacts include disseminating successful interventions to additional partner institutions to evaluate their effectiveness in diverse educational contexts. The grant period runs from November 1, 2023, to October 31, 2026.
