- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $184,727 to the University of Connecticut to evaluate the effectiveness of integrating human rights education into engineering curricula. The project aims to develop, deploy, and assess the efficacy of human rights training modules for incorporation into engineering courses, with the goal of positively impacting engineering students' attitudes towards human rights and their awareness of the...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $121,669 Project Grant under the Engineering (CFDA 47.041) program to The Regents of the University of Colorado (CU) for the collaborative research project "NLI: Educating Engineers for Holistic Problem Solving". The goal of this 3-year project, starting on October 1, 2025, is to transform engineering education by cultivating a holistic "enviro-socio-technical" mindset in students. This will empower future engineers to tackle...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $362,957 to the Trustees of the Stevens Institute of Technology to develop an AI-enhanced mobile learning system for construction engineering students. The system aims to help students learn from their everyday observations of construction components and operations by directing their attention, providing explanations, and linking observations to formal course materials. Key innovations...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $330,000 to the University of Utah to design, develop, and test an AI-enhanced mobile learning system that helps civil and construction engineering students integrate unstructured observations from their everyday environments with formal engineering education. The proposed system will use AI to direct students' attention to key construction components, explain the observations, and link...
- This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education, under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) federal grant program (CFDA 47.076), provides $369,600 to develop and evaluate new engineering design courses focused on contextual perspectives for second and third year students. The University of Illinois, as awardee, will work with the University of Texas-San Antonio to create an instructional framework and materials for the new...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) Project Grant award of $500,000.00, with a period of performance from August 15, 2025 to July 31, 2030, will support a collaborative research project between the University of Connecticut and the University of Missouri. The project aims to reimagine engineering education by creating innovative tools and strategies that support the success of all students, particularly in the critical first two years of the undergraduate experience. It will use artificial intelligence (AI) to build flexible learning environments that accommodate a wide range of student strengths, needs, and preferences. The project will redesign gateway courses in engineering and mathematics, provide faculty professional development on inclusive pedagogy, and integrate AI-powered tutoring and academic coaching to help students develop essential academic behaviors. By improving student engagement and persistence in engineering pathways, this work will contribute to a more diverse, capable, and innovative engineering workforce.
