The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley received a $199,994 project grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program. This grant will fund the acquisition of cluster computing resources to enhance undergraduate education in mathematics, statistics, data science, and computer science at the university. The project will integrate high-performance computing applications into core STEM courses, providing an estimated 1,000 students and 10 faculty members with improved learning experiences and hands-on research opportunities using the new computing equipment. The goals of the project are to enrich undergraduate STEM education, increase student capacity in computational disciplines, and develop new curricular materials that can be disseminated to other institutions. The project will result in student-faculty research publications and public presentations to showcase the impact of the computing resources on enhancing undergraduate STEM learning and teaching.
