Teaching Undergraduates for Learning Investment Program (TULIP) meets once every several weeks throughout the fall and spring semesters. The program was established with a gift from Interdisciplinary Engineering alum Geoff Crowley (BSIDE 1974) and his wife, Kelly. It is at the core of the School of Engineering Education’s mission “to transform engineering education based on scholarship and research.”
