 <\/p>\n

Dr. Deborah McAllister (School of Education), Dr. Aniekan Ebiefung (Mathematics) and Ms. Lindsey Frost Cleary (SimCenter) requested $432,204 from NASA for preservice teacher professional development for university juniors and seniors in all STEM areas. Prospective teachers will attend Saturday and summer workshops, participate in online discussions, and focus on hands-on STEM tasks to improve content knowledge and skills.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The SimCenter Research Team submitted a letter of intent to Optimal LLC to assist with a proposal for NASA\u2019s Small Business Innovation Research program. The SimCenter\u2019s role will be to test Optimal LLC\u2019s computer software on UTC\u2019s in-house, high performance computer cluster.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Drs. Li Yang, Joseph Kizza (Computer Science and Engineering) and Jennifer Ellis (School of Education) requested $119,867 from the National Science Foundation for a collaborative project aimed to bolster browser security education in colleges and universities. Objectives of this project include: incorporating research on browser security into education topics, developing transferable teaching objects (lectures, hands-on labs etc.), and developing faculty expertise through workshops.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
