The UH Mānoa team will focus on training students and interns on microfabrication techniques as well as integrated circuit design and testing.
Teachers dove into hands-on research projects, attended science talks and participated in curriculum development sessions.
The award will also create new STEM pathways that integrate Hawaiian knowledge with materials research at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
These communities will engage in semester-long mentored research experiences and follow-up activities, fostering peer-to-peer collaboration.
Their efforts are part of a National Science Foundation RAPID grant on trauma-informed STEM education.
The project will leverage data from a dense network of weather stations across the islands, feeding it into an innovative AI-enhanced irrigation management system.
The project offers paid research opportunities for college students, fostering the next generation of computer scientists.
A new project aims to provide 300 Kapiʻolani CC students with local, hands-on STEM opportunities.
