The National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education awarded Salish Kootenai College, Inc. $750,000 on August 15, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to redesign computer science instruction and engage regional K-12 educators in artificial intelligence and mathematics integration. The four-year project modifies SKC's computer science curriculum to incorporate mathematics and expand artificial intelligence instruction while simultaneously preparing regional grades 7–12 STEM educators to deliver computer science and dual enrollment courses. The initiative establishes three interconnected components: a teacher professional development network for precollege educators, a formalized 2+3 computer science transfer pathway aligning SKC coursework with partnering universities, and applied undergraduate research connecting machine learning methods to natural resource and community-relevant datasets. All incoming SKC students will receive foundational artificial intelligence literacy through a required first-year seminar module developed in partnership with the American Indian College Fund and Code.org, ensuring exposure to AI, responsible technology use, and computational thinking. Work is performed in Pablo, Montana, with the period of performance running from August 15, 2026, through July 31, 2030. The award is structured as a Project Grant, an assistance type common to NSF's STEM education portfolio.
