This National Science Foundation (NSF) federal grant award under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program provides $649,294 to Rutgers, The State University to explore and assess student perceptions, engagement, and learning outcomes from modifying three undergraduate mechanical and aerospace engineering courses using the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework. The project aims to establish a foundation for STEM instructors to create more inclusive learning environments that resonate with diverse students. Key activities include adapting sophomore, junior, and senior level engineering lab courses to incorporate flexible, responsive curriculum based on the UDL principles. The findings will be disseminated to engineering education researchers, STEM educators, and high school students through publications, presentations, and professional development workshops. This work has the potential to significantly improve access and quality of learning for diverse engineering student communities.
