The National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education awarded $399,517 to the University of Nebraska–Lincoln on July 1, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to conduct research on pedagogies of mathematics instruction in engineering contexts. This Level 1 Improving Undergraduate STEM Education (IUSE) Engaged Student Learning project will investigate how mathematics and engineering instructors perceive and leverage "dual justification" opportunities—instructional moments where students can connect mathematical reasoning with engineering applications. The research will employ qualitative methods including interviews and focus groups with students and faculty from both mathematics and engineering departments, supported by an expert advisory board with relevant disciplinary expertise. The three-year project runs through June 30, 2029. Project outcomes will be disseminated through faculty workshops, conference presentations, a dedicated project website, and peer-reviewed and practitioner-oriented publications targeting both research and practitioner communities. The initiative directly supports NSF's goal of improving STEM education effectiveness and student engagement, with particular focus on enhancing calculus outcomes and overall retention and success of undergraduate engineering students—a critical population for the nation's engineering workforce pipeline.Federal Grant Award Summary
