University Engineering Education Program
Hello All,
I understand Purdue and Virginia Tech has an Engineering Education Program, does anyone know what other universities has such a program ? Cheers, Marcos. |

Re: University Engineering Education Program
Purdue does have a Technology education degree. I'm very much considering it myself. It is constantly ranked the top program in the united states for Tech. Education. It also offers a 100% placement rating. You can also double major in Information Technology....just in case teaching isn't for you. Here are some links.

Re: University Engineering Education Program
It's very cool to hear of FIRST student who are interested in becoming technology and engineering teachers. The link below lists schools who offer degree programs in Technology Education or Pre-engineering Education. The field use to be called Industrial Arts and can now probabaly be called any combination of the words above with education to follow!
http://www.iteaconnect.org/Resources...nalmembers.htm Message me if you have any questions about this. I am a FIRST alumni who went on to become a Technology Education teacher. |
Re: University Engineering Education Program
Hello All,
Thanks all for the info. I am looking more on the graduate level for Engineering Education, since I already hold a B.S in Electrical Engineering. Anyone has had any experience with those two programs ? Purdue https://engineering.purdue.edu/ENE/ Virginia Tech http://www.enge.vt.edu/ I think there are two other universities in the country that offers this type of program....... Cheers, Marcos. |

From what I can tell, the people in the program are vibrant and interested in what they do, and there is quite a bit of interaction with people from other departments here at Purdue, so you wouldn't be just learning about Engineering Education ideas, but rather you can have a large degree of interaction with engineering educators and people who are directly influenced by the field (i.e. students) from all sorts of engineering disciplines. In the past several years especially Purdue has been feeling more and more interdisciplinary on the graduate level and I think that can only benefit an Engineering Education program. |
Re: University Engineering Education Program
Since you already have an undergrad degree you might take a look at your state's certification program for alternate route certification. This type of certification gets you into the classroom and would have you taking teacher training courses during your first year. This is a link to some information on Alternate Route programs in your state, MO. Take a look at the homepage of that site if you need the broad information pertaining to Alternate Route Certification.
It's great seeing someone people with engineering experience decide to take the plunge into teaching. It really is a great experience for the professionals and the students. |
Re: University Engineering Education Program
The University of Texas just started a new program this year which has three different levels to it. Here is the link to the website.
http://uteach.engr.utexas.edu/ Sounds to me like you might be interested in the UTeachEngineering Master of Arts in Science and Engineering Education (MASEE). My assistant in for the Robotics Team is doing the Summer Institute Training since he already has his Master's Degree and he is an electrical engineer as well as a teacher at our school. Scholarships are available for tuition as well as travel and housing expenses. Hope that helps. If you want more information later this year about the summer program, let me know and I will get you in touch with my assistant coach on the team. |

Re: University Engineering Education Program
I'm in the Technology and Engineering Education program at Central Connecticut State University. They do offer it at all three levels, undergrad, graduate and doctorate.
You can check out the website: http://www.teched.ccsu.edu/ or email/PM me if you have any other questions. |
Re: University Engineering Education Program
You should also look at Tufts
They have a PhD in Math, Science, Technology, and Engineering (STEM) Education http://ase.tufts.edu/education/progr...ch/MSTEphd.asp Their Center Engineering Education Outreach is a very interesting program run by an inspiring guy (Chris Rogers) http://www.ceeo.tufts.edu/ http://www.tufts.edu/~crogers/ |
Re: University Engineering Education Program
Thanks all for the postings !!!. A lot good information, I did not know there is so many colleges and universities engaged in Engineering Education programs.
Anyone have experience with Virginia Tech Engineering Education program ? Cheers, Marcos. |
Re: University Engineering Education Program
Dont rule out Mechanical Engineering or other engineering programs. I got my degree in mechanical engineering worked in robotics, CAD, and biotech fields and then taught for 10 plus years to both college and high school. Engineering degrees give you options! Marie
