This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.076 - STEM Education) provides $199,916.00 to the Research Foundation for the State University of New York (SUNY Old Westbury) to acquire an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) instrument. The award aims to enhance chemical instrumentation and undergraduate STEM education at SUNY Old Westbury, a designated Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) and primarily undergraduate institution (PUI). The project will assess three key objectives: (1) seamless instrument installation and comprehensive training, (2) integration of UPLC-MS into undergraduate courses, research projects, and summer programs, and (3) promotion of faculty collaboration across scientific disciplines through UPLC-MS utilization. This award, effective December 1, 2024 through November 30, 2026, is intended to empower faculty to explore new research avenues, foster interdisciplinary collaborations, and deepen students' understanding of scientific concepts and critical thinking skills.
