The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $415,356 Project Grant under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to Morgan State University. This 5-year grant, effective January 1, 2025, aims to expand the university's Ph.D. program in Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure Engineering. The project will advance understanding of climate-resilient engineering while increasing participation of doctoral students, particularly from underrepresented groups, in STEM fields. Key objectives include enhancing the curriculum with research-informed courses, engaging communities in resilience-building practices, and leveraging state-of-the-art computational modeling and data analysis to mitigate infrastructure vulnerability. Expected outcomes include interdisciplinary courses, increased doctoral student enrollment, and enhanced research partnerships.
