This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5). Visualization is increasingly essential for some forms of scientific and engineering research, particularly to explore change over time, or to examine complex interactions in models. While most scientific visualization occurs in two dimensions, selective use of three dimensional immersive technology for modeling and simulation projects is proposed by Drs. Joiner, Chang and Morreale at Kean University in collaboration with Dr. Manson of the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey. The specific research projects include topics in biochemistry, environmental studies, biology, meteorology, applied mathematics, psychology and computer science. There is a strong STEM education component to the proposed activities since Kean and Stockton are first and foremost, teaching universities. Nearly half of Kean's undergraduate population is minority and both schools have a significant percent of their student population who are first generation college students. The award from NSF's Office of Cyberinfrastructure supports acquisition of advanced scientific visualization tools, with Kean receiving the most significant grant.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。可视化对于某些形式的科学和工程研究越来越重要，特别是探索随时间的变化，或检查模型中的复杂相互作用。 虽然大多数科学可视化发生在两个维度，选择性地使用三维沉浸式技术进行建模和仿真项目是由基恩大学的Joiner，Chang和Morreale博士与新泽西理查德斯托克顿学院的曼森博士合作提出的。 具体的研究项目包括生物化学、环境研究、生物学、气象学、应用数学、心理学和计算机科学。 由于基恩和斯托克顿首先是教学大学，因此拟议的活动有很强的STEM教育组成部分。 基恩大学近一半的本科生是少数民族，两所学校的学生中有相当一部分是第一代大学生。 来自NSF网络基础设施办公室的奖项支持先进科学可视化工具的收购，Kean获得了最重要的资助。
