Poster Session for Projects Supported by the NSF Division of Undergraduate Education

NSF’s Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) grant projects are designed to improve curricula, instruction, laboratories, infrastructure, assessment, diversity, and collaborations at two- and four-year colleges and universities. This session will feature principal investigators (PIs) presenting progress and outcomes from various NSF funded projects in the Division of Undergraduate Education. The poster session format will permit ample opportunity for attendees to engage in small group discussions with the PIs and to network with each other.
