Engineering Education Academics
In a period of rapid change, to adapt is too dangerous because it means you are always running behind. You have to find a way of getting ahead...call it a vision, call it a mission, it's basically taking responsibility for shaping events.
—Peter Drucker
>>> The gateway for all beginning engineering students at Purdue. A student-oriented, service program, it was the first of its kind in the country and has been operating for over 50 years to recruit, advise, teach, and support Purdue engineering first-year students. Faculty and advising staff help students make the transition from high school to college, guide them in choosing an engineering discipline, and ground them in the engineering fundamentals.
>>> For students whose interests and abilities lie at the interface of engineering disciplines or for those who are interested in bringing together multiple engineering disciplines for complex problem solving.
>>> In 2005, we became the first department in the world to offer a graduate degree in engineering education for students interested in studying the art and science of learning engineering. These pioneering programs are a platform for engineering education discovery, scholarship, and academic reform.
