The National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education awarded Texas Tech University $187,321 on October 15, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to develop an integrated systems model of organizational resilience in engineering departments. The project will characterize relationships among student, faculty/staff, and departmental resilience, then investigate the model's impact on student outcomes. Texas Tech will create a validated integrated systems model including supporting tools that engineering educators and administrators can use to assess departmental resilience and test strategies for developing multi-level resilience. The work aims to advance understanding of how dimensions of engineering education resilience relate to one another and support engaged student learning, ultimately enabling the development of strategies for engineering departments to systematically improve resilience across all levels and better support student degree completion and workforce transition. Performance occurs in Lubbock, Texas, with a period of performance from October 15, 2026, through September 30, 2028. This is a Level 1 Engaged Student Learning project addressing the persistent national challenge of degree completion and workforce readiness in engineering education.
