The National Science Foundation has awarded Prof. Oyekoya a Research Experience for Undergraduates Site Grant, focusing on immersive 3D Visualization.   The award funds an on-site summer program to enable ten undergraduate students each year to undertake Immersive 3D Visualization research projects at Hunter College, City University of New York (CUNY). The intended impact is to use the creative potential of Immersive 3D technology to attract and broaden participation of women and underrepresented minorities in STEM and computing fields. Recruiting of students will begin Fall 2021, and the program will begin Summer 2022.
