This award provides funding for a 3 year continuing award to support a Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) in Engineering Site program at the University of Cincinnati (UC) entitled, Sustainable Engineering for Urban Needs: Research Experiences for Middle and High School Teachers", under the direction of Dr. Anant Kukreti. This Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) in Engineering Site is a renewal of a successful RET Site program hosted by the UC College of Engineering which annually supports, 12 in-service and 6 pre-service middle and high school math and science teachers from Cincinnati public schools, who will participate in a six-week summer research program and academic year follow-on activities. The primary goals of this RET site are three fold: (1) To educate, cultivate, and enrich experiences for science and math teachers by exploring the scientific methods of inquiry and the critical research skills used by engineers to solve open-ended real-world problems. (2) The participating teachers will become role models by applying their research experiences in their classrooms with colleagues. (3) The teachers' new skills will enable their students to directly link their education to current events and the needs of their community and encourage them to become effective citizens in a technology-driven society.

该奖项为辛辛那提大学（UC）（UC）的工程站点计划的教师（RET）提供了为期3年的持续奖项提供资金在Anant Kukreti博士的指导下。辛辛那提公立学校的高中数学和科学老师将参加六周的夏季研究计划和该学年的学习年度。并通过探索科学和数学教师的经验来探索探究的科学方法以及工程师用来解决开放式现实世界问题的关键研究技能（2）参与的教师将通过将其研究经验应用于他们的研究经验。与同事的教室。 （3）教师的新技能将使他们的学生能够将他们的教育与当前事件和社区的需求联系起来，并鼓励他们在技术驱动的社会中成为有效的公民。
