This National Science Foundation (NSF) federal grant award under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $349,995.00 to Terc, Inc., a non-profit organization focused on improving STEM education through innovative research, curriculum development, and professional development programs. The project, titled "Examining the Integration of Equity and Interdisciplinarity in the Policies of Innovative Graduate Training Programs," aims to explore the connection between interdisciplinarity and equity in STEM graduate training programs. The 3-year project will conduct a meta-synthesis of the research literature and a policy analysis, including stakeholder interviews, to understand how supports or challenges for interdisciplinarity may provide leverage (or further obstacles) for equity in these programs. The findings will inform recommendations for fostering equitable learning environments in interdisciplinary graduate training initiatives.
