CSUSB receives two federal grants
One grant from the National Institutes of Health will fund a study looking at adult day services providers and how they adapt to changing demographics, technology and policies. The other grant will expand services at CSUSB’s Student Assistance in Learning (SAIL) program, including academic advising for low-income and first-generation students, as well as students with disabilities.

Awarded to the university’s Research Institute for Public Management and Governance, the grant will be used to engage students in applied research, create pathways into green careers, and provide actionable data to help local governments and organizations meet California’s energy and equity goals.

Stewarded by Jennifer Beamer, faculty librarian for scholarly communications, the award aims to propel open scholarship by providing essential training, resources and collaborative opportunities for CSUSB researchers, students and faculty.

Thanks to a grant supplement received by CSUSB faculty as part of their National Science Foundation CREST II grant, CSUSB was able to offer a computer chip program for area high school students during the summer of 2025.
