NSF Coalition Programs

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has been supporting a number of Engineering Education Coalitions in recent years. These Coalitions have obtained many valuable results that are available on the Internet. Dr. John Prados of NSF has provided the following directions as to how to make use of this information:

The easiest way to get to the coalitions on the Web is through the coalition's home page at:

http://www.needs.org/coalitions/

Not all coalition Web pages are fully developed. If you have difficulty getting information for a given coalition, I suggest that you contact the director. A list of these contacts is given below.
