Award Details: Wayne State University received a $300,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Engineering, Division of Engineering Education and Centers (CFDA 47.041) on July 1, 2026, with a completion date of June 30, 2029. The award supports Track 2 Collaborative Research focused on engineering student retention. Products and Services: This project develops and implements an artificial intelligence (AI)-supported mentoring program designed to improve retention of student veterans and service members (SVSMs) in engineering education. The program delivers culturally congruent academic assistance that reflects military values, communication styles, and lived experiences, addressing the transition challenges SVSMs face moving from structured military hierarchies to self-directed academic environments. The project leverages natural language processing and other AI techniques to provide tailored mentoring, generate new knowledge on culturally congruent mentoring outcomes, and produce a replicable model for improving engineering workforce retention. Through this initiative, the project advances NSF's mission to strengthen engineering workforce pathways while promoting greater awareness of military culture within higher education institutions and bridging the cultural gap between military service and academic settings.Federal Project Grant Summary
