This $113,370 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to transform introductory engineering courses at a Hispanic-serving two-year college. The goal is to enhance student success and interest in pursuing STEM degrees through a project-based learning approach.

The award will fund the development of quasi-independent, low-cost classroom materials and curricula that provide early-career engineering students with significant project work and opportunities to explore different engineering disciplines. Advanced students will work with faculty to create these materials, which will focus on building students' technical skills, competence, and professional identity. The insights gained from the student developers' experiences will inform future proposals to understand how educational experiences impact the growth and development of autonomy in early-career engineering students.
