Department of Engineering Education
As Chair of this dynamic and interdisciplinary department, I am honored to lead a community committed to transforming engineering education through innovative teaching, cutting-edge research, and research-informed practices. Our department serves as a hub for advancing how engineering is taught, learned, and experienced—both within the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering and beyond.
Our faculty and staff are passionate about creating meaningful learning experiences that empower students to become thoughtful, ethical, and impactful engineers. Whether you are a prospective student, a current member of our academic community, or a collaborator from industry or academia, we invite you to explore the many ways we are shaping the future of engineering education.
We are proud to offer a range of academic programs, research opportunities, and outreach initiatives that reflect our commitment to excellence, professionalism, and innovation. I encourage you to learn more about our work, connect with our faculty, and join us in our mission to reimagine engineering education for a better tomorrow.
