- NSF ECR-PEER Advanced Manufacturing
- The overall goal of this engineering education proposal submitted by the University of Southern California is to design, develop, and deploy online engineering curricula to accelerate the training of the US workforce in the critical systems engineering skills area and its application to advanced manufacturing practice. The specific objectives of the project are to. Learn More
- Advanced Scholars in Successful Undergraduate Research Experience
- One of the biggest needs of the hour is for students in STEM to enter, persist and graduate from postsecondary institutions. Increasing diversity in STEM is an important goal. According to national statistics, the largest groups of underrepresented minority students in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) attend America’s public higher education institutions, particularly community colleges.
