TECH-FIT is a National Science Foundation initiative at FIT, part of the State University of New York. An institution with over 85% female students, this interdisciplinary, design-related STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) project sought to increase inclusion and student performance in STEM. Building on new and existing online teaching and learning resources, goals were achieved through faculty development and innovative curriculum, supported by research-based pedagogies and innovative technology.
