Master of Engineering in Engineering Education

The University of Cincinnati’s master’s degree in Engineering Education prepares students to analyze, interpret, and implement findings from the literature in engineering education into practice, while in parallel advancing their expertise within a technical field in support of their career aspirations. In addition, each student will specialize in one of three focus areas: higher education in engineering, engineering education in PreK-12 levels (formal and informal environments, for- or non-profit), or engineering industry and workforce development. A master’s degree in engineering education can lead to a career in academia, informal educational environments, industry, or government.Engineering education research, as a discipline, utilizes theories, methods of inquiry, and ways of knowing associated with a variety of related disciplines - including anthropology, diversity, equity, and inclusion studies, economics, education, neuroscience, philosophy, political science, psychology, and sociology, along with education research in science, technology, and mathematics – interpreted through the lens of engineering. Students will be introduced to theories related to the teaching and learning of engineering and the applications of pedagogy and assessment. Additionally, they will develop knowledge of research methods inherent to the field with an emphasis on interpreting and assessing the quality of findings and translating those results to practice.

For our graduate programs, we welcome applications from students who hold a baccalaureate degree (or higher) from a college or university regarded as standard by a regional or general accrediting agency, and have at least a B average in undergraduate course work (or otherwise give evidence of promise that is judged satisfactory by the admitting program and the Graduate School).GRE - Required of all international students; GRE is exempt for students that earned a degree from an ABET accredited university (or equivalent accreditation) in the USA with a GPA of 3.0+Transcript(s) and Degree Certificates (unofficial transcripts are used for admissions review, only admitted applicants submit official transcripts)GPA of at least 3.0 in a Bachelor's or Graduate degree program in engineering, mathematics, or the physical sciences from a college or university regarded as standard by a regional or general accrediting agencyStandardized Tests of
