This grant from the National Science Foundation is for re-envisioning and improving undergraduate STEM education, specifically focusing on computing in undergraduate curricula. The Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Computing in Undergraduate Education (IUSE: CUE) program aims to better prepare a wider, more diverse range of students to effectively and collaboratively use computation across various contexts and challenging problems. A key purpose of this grant is to develop scalable methods for teaching computing to a broad student body, with a strong emphasis on broadening the participation of groups historically underrepresented and underserved by traditional computing courses and careers. The objective is to foster an inclusive environment where all students can acquire essential computational skills.
