The Foundation Coalition (FC), one of eight engineering coalitions funded by the National Science Foundation, was established as an agent of systemic renewal for the engineering educational community. FC partner campuses have restructured their curricula, renovated or built new classrooms, and created faculty development projects guided by core competencies (listed below) that are informed by a number of theories that address learning and change. [1] Two of the theoretical frameworks used are social learning theory and constructivist learning theory. Our core competencies are the abilities which we must develop, continuously improve and use to realize the vision and mission of the Foundation Coalition.
