Title III Strengthening Institutions Program Grant
The U.S. Department of Education has awarded Pennsylvania College of Technology a Title III Strengthening Institutions Program Grant to implement a comprehensive redesign of its math curricula.
Titled “Improving Success and Retention for Underserved Students at Penn College,” this initiative aims to enhance educational outcomes for students, particularly those enrolled in developmental math courses. These courses are critical as they serve as gateways to most STEM majors, which are essential for equipping students with the skills needed for sustainable, high-demand careers. By strengthening the institution's capacity to support underserved students, the project seeks to boost retention and success rates, ultimately contributing to a more robust and capable American workforce and economy.
