This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) in the amount of $328,427 supports a postdoctoral research fellowship at Purdue University to advance engineering education by investigating the role of labor unions. The project aims to conduct a systematic literature review and semi-structured interviews focused on the intersections between engineering and labor organizing. Specifically, the research will explore how engineering students learn about labor unions and how labor organizers view education beneficial for engineers. The findings from this project will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations, and talks in engineering education and academic labor venues.
