- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $137,202 Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to New York University (NYU) to investigate the conditions that reinforce or hinder faculty motivation to incorporate economic, environmental, and social considerations into undergraduate engineering courses. This research aims to suggest practical, evidence-informed strategies to support instructional change and promote the integration of sustainability concepts into engineering...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering (CFDA 47.041) Project Grant awarded to CAL Poly Corporation will chart the development of sociotechnical thinking in engineering students and professionals. The $171,088 award will run from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2027. The project will use scenario-based design tasks and interviews to examine how engineers' reasoning about social, cultural, political, environmental and other contextual factors evolves as they gain education and professional...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research examining the contextual influences on faculty pedagogical decision-making and student learning in sociotechnical engineering design education. The $244,294 award to Trustees of Tufts College (Tufts University) will fund a multi-year research study with three key objectives: Convene faculty across institutions to facilitate knowledge sharing and pedagogical innovation...
- This Project Grant award of $387,145 from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) aims to examine faculty beliefs about engineering work and how they connect their teaching to industry needs and practices. The three-phase study will determine what engineering faculty across the United States know about engineering work and how they use that knowledge in their teaching. The findings will then be used to develop workshops, handouts, and other resources to help faculty...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Directorate for Engineering awarded a $418,531 Project Grant titled "DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT: COLORADO SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING INQUIRY COLLABORATIVE" to the University of Colorado Boulder (CU), a U.S. state government educational institution, with a performance period from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026. The grant supports the design and development of an educational infrastructure to enhance rural Colorado middle and high school students'...
- The University of Colorado Denver received a three-year $350,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation to conduct the "Engineering Is Not Neutral: Transforming Instruction via Collaboration and Engagement" project. The goal of this NSF Engineering grant (CFDA 47.041) is to improve engineering education and foster innovation by supporting projects that enable the transformation of engineering instruction through collaborative and engaging teaching methods....
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) project grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will explore the self-adjustment experiences of community college transfer students enrolled in engineering programs at a research-intensive university. The $535,992 award, effective August 1, 2025 through July 31, 2028, will investigate the strategies these students use to manage psychosocial stressors and persist toward an engineering degree. The research aims to generate evidence-based insights to...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), supports collaborative research to transform engineering education and cultivate a holistic enviro-socio-technical mindset in future engineers. The $229,621 award, effective from October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2028, will be executed by the Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines (UEI: JW2NGMP4NMA3). The research aims to empower engineers to seamlessly integrate technical knowledge with critical societal and environmental considerations when designing sustainable solutions for complex global challenges such as environmental change, resource scarcity, and the impacts of emerging technologies like artificial intelligence. By bridging the gap between technical, societal, and environmental dimensions in engineering education, this project seeks to develop a new generation of engineers prepared to tackle grand challenges and contribute to national well-being, economic strength, and a sustainable future.
