The Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) through Targeted Infusion Projects supports the development, implementation, and study of evidence-based innovative models and approaches for improving the preparation and success of HBCU undergraduate students so that they may pursue science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) graduate programs and/or careers. The project at North Carolina Central University (NCCU) seeks to develop a concentration in Computational and Engineering Mathematics. The project intends to provide a sound introduction to computational and engineering mathematics to undergraduate students to prepare them for positions in industry or for graduate school. The activities and strategies are evidence-based and a strong plan for formative and summative evaluation is part of the project.This project has the objectives to: infuse computational engineering and mathematics techniques into relevant already existing mathematics and physics courses; develop new theme-based computational and engineering mathematics courses and laboratories; establish a 3-plus-2 program with North Carolina State University; develop a computational engineering and mathematics capstone design project; and recruit students for the new concentration. The areas of concentration are: robotics engineering, computational science, data science, computer engineering, electrical engineering, and industrial engineering. Demonstrating and evaluating how to integrate computational and engineering applications concentrations into a mathematics major could serve as a model to other liberal arts institutions.

历史上黑人学院和大学本科项目 (HBCU-UP) 通过定向注入项目支持开发、实施和研究基于证据的创新模型和方法，以改善 HBCU 本科生的准备和成功，以便他们可以追求科学、技术、工程或数学 (STEM) 研究生课程和/或职业。北卡罗来纳中央大学 (NCCU) 的该项目旨在集中发展计算和工程数学。该项目旨在为本科生提供计算和工程数学的全面介绍，为他们在工业界或研究生院的职位做好准备。这些活动和策略是基于证据的，并且形成性和总结性评估的强有力计划是该项目的一部分。该项目的目标是： 将计算工程和数学技术融入相关现有的数学和物理课程；开发新的基于主题的计算和工程数学课程和实验室；与北卡罗来纳州立大学建立3+2项目；开发计算工程和数学顶点设计项目；并为新的浓度招收学生。重点领域是：机器人工程、计算科学、数据科学、计算机工程、电气工程和工业工程。展示和评估如何将计算和工程应用重点整合到数学专业中可以作为其他文科机构的典范。
