Publications and Conferences
An important part of any research project is the participation in a broader community: gathering together in various forums to share information and best practices to increase each others effectiveness. This sharing takes many forms from internal project/faculty meetings, meetings with our industry partners, active participation in educational conferences, and publications.
Dissemination Strategies
Since the NSF award, grant members have disseminated information via poster fairs, panel discussions, presentations at educational conferences, and even a book.
This web site is a key location to share information with our project partners and others involved in “Revolutionizing Engineering and Computer Science Departments.”
Faculty buy-in is crucial, thus we have created an internal web site with additional content for faculty members.
