The University of Rochester received a $3.0 million Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), awarded June 1, 2026, with completion anticipated by May 31, 2031. This award funds the Advancing Understanding & Resilience Actions (AURA) Research Hub, a mixed-methods, multi-institutional collaborative initiative designed to investigate how holistic programmatic interventions impact resilience development among academically talented, low-income students pursuing degrees in computer science and engineering. The AURA Hub will generate evidence-based knowledge regarding individual, community, and environmental factors that facilitate or impede resilience, while examining institutional structures and practices supporting STEM professional identity formation, persistence in major fields, academic success, and workforce entry. The project deliverables include: (1) comprehensive research investigating resilience development within S-STEM (Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) projects; (2) creation of interdisciplinary professional learning communities to strengthen the broader S-STEM project network; (3) establishment of discipline-based education research fellowships focused on growth and fixed mindset, self-determination, and professional identity development in engineering and computer science contexts; and (4) dissemination of research findings to advance the national knowledge base on programmatic interventions that support STEM degree completion and retention for economically disadvantaged, high-achieving undergraduates with demonstrated financial need.Federal Grant Award Summary
