We've recently introduced an important enhancement that makes search refinement faster and more efficient in Engineering Village. Previously, you would revert back to the search page to modifyyour most recent search. Now, a search form on the top of the results page makes search modifications easier.This new search form eliminates the need to take the extra step of clicking the back arrow to the original search form when editing a search.  Additionally, terms and concepts within the search results list can be consulted as you modify your queries.

As a result, less time is needed to modify

The answer is “yes,” according to two Drexel University engineering students—and these young women are not alone:  a recent MIT study found that, in the United States, “20% of undergraduate engineering degrees are awarded to women, but only 13% of the engineering workforce is female.” This statistic may be due, at least in part, to the study’s findings that “women often feel marginalized, especially during internships, other summer work opportunities, or team-based educational activities,” which may serve as a catalyst for leaving engineering when it’s time to embark on a

Whether you wish to pursue grants for a specific area of research or need help in identifying funding organizations and discovering collaborators, our three new grant funding fields allow you to quickly search for engineering research related to a specific funding agency or funded project.  

How it works:

1) Grant Funding Acronym 2) Grant Funding Number 3) Grant Funding Sponsor

• Identify new sources of research funding
• Learn more about previous research funded by an organization
• Track funded researchers and institutions​
