- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) Project Grant award of $200,867 to the University of Arizona aims to develop and assess an educational approach focused on "priming" to promote sustainable engineering design decision-making among students. The project seeks to: Scale up priming for sustainability as an engineering education intervention Examine the role of priming on sustainable engineering design Evaluate the impact of priming for sustainability...
- This $349,893 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering Program (CFDA 47.041) will support research at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) to investigate how sustainability-focused course interventions influence the development of a sustainability-conscious engineering identity among students. The project aims to design and implement sustainability-focused course modules and projects across approximately 10 engineering courses at RIT, spanning both...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $400,000 Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to Brown University. The grant, with a performance period from July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2029, supports the "Design and Development: Cross Disciplinary Co-Teaching Sustainability Across the Formal and Informal Engineering Undergraduate Curriculum" project. This initiative aims to embed sustainability concepts into core engineering courses and develop a new course that pairs undergraduate students with community partners and industry to tackle real-world sustainability challenges. The project also seeks to transform how students learn about sustainability outside the classroom, such as in makerspaces and independent research projects. The goal is to help engineering students develop a strong sense of identity as sustainability problem-solvers, preparing them to address critical environmental and social challenges in their future careers.
