Faculty from U.S. colleges and universities with undergraduate mechanical engineering programs are invited to apply for this program.
The program objective is to create awareness and engage students in fluid power; engage faculty in the development and teaching of fluid power; and to develop, replicate and disseminate high-quality, high-impact university level fluid power curriculum.
A $25,000 grant will be awarded for the design and development of a fluid power module to be embedded into core engineering curriculum.
Deadline: Friday, June 9, 2017
Grants will be awarded to recipients as undesignated funds. Grants will be awarded to those seeking support of projects that do not involve considerations of intellectual property. 100% of the award designated as a gift will go directly to the actual project costs and will not be applied to any indirect or overhead.
Contact Lynn Beyer at (414) 778-3364 or lbeyer@nfpa.com with any questions.
