This $649,008 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to infuse climate change curriculum into technology programs. The project, led by the Research Foundation of the City University of New York (RFCUNY) - Queensborough Community College, seeks to develop 10 educational modules that will integrate climate change topics into existing mechanical and electrical engineering technology programs. Key objectives include identifying critical student learning objectives in collaboration with industry partners, educating faculty and high school teachers on module integration, and assessing student learning outcomes through classroom implementation. The project also plans to host an educational symposium to disseminate findings and insights to the broader education and industry community. This initiative is designed to enhance student awareness of climate change impacts and equip them with technical skills crucial for industry adaptation, addressing a critical national gap in technology education related to climate change.
