The University of Cincinnati's Engineering Education master's program equips students to evaluate, understand, and apply research findings from engineering education literature while simultaneously enhancing their technical skills to support professional goals. Students can choose to concentrate in one of three specialized tracks: collegiate engineering education, PreK-12 engineering instruction (including both formal and informal educational settings across profit and nonprofit sectors), or corporate and workforce training in engineering. This degree opens doors to opportunities in academic institutions, alternative learning spaces, corporate settings, or public sector roles.
As an interdisciplinary field, engineering education research draws upon frameworks, investigative approaches, and knowledge systems from diverse areas such as anthropology, DEI studies, economics, neuroscience, philosophy, political science, psychology, sociology, and STEM education research - all viewed through an engineering perspective. The curriculum covers foundational theories about engineering instruction and learning, practical teaching strategies, and evaluation techniques. Students also gain expertise in field-specific research methodologies, focusing on critically analyzing findings and implementing evidence-based practices.
