The National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education awarded Northern Arizona University $398,715 on October 1, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to enhance undergraduate STEM learning and career readiness through the STEM Interaction, Communication, Career, and Community Hub. The project delivers undergraduate career-building programming connecting students with science and strengthening university-community research impacts. Lower-division students participate in seminars on real-world STEM experiences through internships and research; upper-division STEM students broaden skills through science communication internships. Interns engage local youth and families in meaningful STEM research through outreach activities at community events, enhancing STEM literacy. The work investigates how participation in co-curricular science communication internships influences student academic engagement, self-efficacy, persistence, and career intentions in STEM, using narrative inquiry methodology to generate findings that inform career-building STEM experiences and strategies supporting persistence and success among STEM majors. Performance occurs in Flagstaff, Arizona, with a period of performance from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2029. Northern Arizona University is a public research institution and Hispanic-Serving Institution; Arizona Board of Regents serves as its parent entity. The Engaged Student Learning Track of the NSF IUSE program supports the creation and exploration of undergraduate STEM education projects.
