About Engineering Education ‣ Masters in Purdue University
Purdue has been a powerhouse for educating engineers for more than 120 years, but the academic study of how best to educate engineers has emerged in just the past few decades. Determined to lead in the discipline, in 2004 Purdue established the School of Engineering Education, the world's first such academic unit and world's first engineering education graduate program.
At Purdue, an enthusiastic and committed community of scholars (including 25+ faculty members) has developed a research base for guiding engineering education by experimenting with new teaching methods, developing curricula, assessing how students learn, and moving those findings into the classrooms of tomorrow’s engineers. The ultimate goal? To educate engineering leaders who can respond creatively and responsibly to 21st-century challenges.
Our graduate degree offerings include a Ph.D. program for students wishing to pursue rigorous research in how engineering, science, technology, and math are best taught, learned, and practiced. Our online master’s degree program is for those seeking to understand the field's underlying theory and more practical applications, but are not currently ready to pursue a Ph.D. Finally, our ""Teaching and Learning in Engineering"" Graduate Certificate program helps graduate students, faculty members, and industry professionals in engineering and allied STEM fields enhance their teaching and course design skills.
