Description
The
National Science Foundation (NSF) and The Boeing Company are supporting a new
initiative, managed and administered by NSF through its EHR Core Research (ECR)
program, to accelerate training in critical skill areas for the Nation's
engineering and advanced manufacturing workforce. The EHR Core
Research: Production Engineering Education and Research (ECR: PEER)
initiative supports foundational research arising from the design, development,
and deployment of creative online curricula that provide learners at various
levels with skills in five focal areas: model-based systems engineering,
software engineering, mechatronics, data science, and artificial intelligence.
ECR: PEER invites proposals to design, develop, deploy, and study the
effectiveness of online courses in any one of these focal areas using the
theories and tools of the learning sciences. Proposals for these ECR:
PEER Course, Curriculum, and Evaluation projects may request a
maximum of $2,000,000 support for a duration of up to three
years.
Additionally,
ECR: PEER welcomes proposals to convene experts in the academic, for-profit,
and non-profit sectors to imagine the future of production engineering
education for one of the five focal areas. Proposals for these ECR:
PEER Workforce Development Workshops may request a maximum of
$100,000 support for a duration of up to one year.
