The grant of more than $700,000 will be used to research methods for improving math education for preschool-aged children, Senator Sherrod Brown’s office announced.

“We need to set Ohio students up for success in math, and that starts with strong pre-K programs,” Brown said. “This award will help students at the University of Dayton work to improve math education for the youngest Ohioans, and ensure that the next generation is prepared to lead in the industries of the future.”

The NSF supports research and education in all non-medical fields of science and engineering.
