Increasingly, our college has had to serve more students with fewer state dollars, and grant writing has been a key part of our strategy for maintaining excellence and supporting student success. It’s part of what sets our college apart and puts us ahead. One example of this is that we have received 12 National Science Foundation Grants in the past 11 years www.edcc.edu/grants/nsf.php.
