Increasing engineering literacy in a complex world
The Center for Engineering Education prepares future and current PK-12 educators to teach STEAM education with an emphasis on engineering and to increase students' engineering literacy in an ever-changing and complex world.
Through the Center for Engineering Education, PK-12 educators learn about innovations in engineering education and how to bring those advances into their classrooms. The Center supports teachers' STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics) integration with engineering education through the STEAM Graduate Certificate in Engineering Education program.
Credits earned in the graduate certificate program can be applied toward the School of Education's Master of Arts in Educational Studies with an engineering education concentration.
Are you looking for a custom STEAM, Engineering Design or Maker oriented professional development program for your school? The Center for Engineering Education has experience creating professional development programs to specifically meet school's needs and interests.
Please contact Dr. Deb Besser or Dr. AnnMarie Thomas for details.
The Science, Technology & Engineering Preview Summer - STEPS - program is an introduction for 6th and 8th grade girls to the exciting world of science, technology, and engineering.
