The College of Engineering has launched an innovative Ph.D. in Engineering Education program, focusing on the intersections between engineering and social sciences. This interdisciplinary program prepares graduates to foster inclusivity, accessibility, and creative teaching in engineering education.
Students like Connie Syharat and Mikayla Friday are among those working to advance neurodiversity and innovative pedagogical methods, while exploring ways to make engineering education more equitable and accessible for all learners. The program also includes NSF-funded initiatives like the Include Project and IGE Project aimed at transforming engineering education culture.
