Engineering Education Research

The Engineering Education Research (EER) is an interdisciplinary field of study that seeks to understand and enhance the processes and practices of engineering learning and teaching. Drawing upon methodologies and theories from both education and engineering, EER aims to inform curriculum development, pedagogical techniques, and educational policy to produce more effective, diverse, and innovative engineers. Topics explored within this domain range from students' conceptual understanding and problem-solving strategies to broader issues like retention, diversity, and curricular reform in engineering programs. The ultimate goal of EER is to contribute to the advancement of engineering education, ensuring it remains relevant, effective, and accessible to all.
