The National Science Foundation (NSF), through its Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), awarded a $650,000 Project Grant to San Francisco State University (SFSU) on August 15, 2025. The grant aims to improve engineering education at broad-access institutions, where over half of all American college students are low-income or first-generation. The project will study how these students leverage their unique assets to achieve success, and identify ways for engineering faculty and staff to better support them. The findings will help educators develop asset-based strategies to serve all students, particularly low-income and first-generation, and support student success in engineering programs across various institution types. SFSU, a Hispanic-Serving Institution, will lead this research in collaboration with the broader California State University system, which encompasses 23 campuses and serves over 480,000 students annually.
