Hello,

As the graduate recruiting co-chair for Purdue University’s School of
Engineering Education, I invite you to attend our RECRUITMENT OPEN HOUSE
for prospective PhD students on March 26-27, 2009 (this week Thursday
and Friday).

Our doctoral program, the first of its kind in the U.S., is the premier
academic program for exploring how engineering is best learned, taught,
and practiced. We emphasize rigorous research in preparing graduates for
careers in academia, government, the nonprofit sector, and industry, and
we actively seek students from diverse perspectives and backgrounds to
contribute to our community of scholars. We’re committed to developing a
research base for guiding engineering education practice, developing
curricula, assessing how students learn, and moving those findings into
the classroom of tomorrow’s engineers. The ultimate goal? To educate
engineering leaders who can respond creatively and responsibly to
21st-century challenges.

If that sounds like an intellectual endeavor you’d like to take part in,
we welcome your interest in our doctoral program. You can find details
and updates on our open house at
https://engineering.purdue.edu/ENE/Academics/Graduate/openhouse.html

If you want to know more about Engineering Education at Purdue, feel
free to contact me directly (see contact information below). I’ll be
happy to answer your questions.

It would be great if you could RSVP to Suzie Schilling
([email protected]), so we have enough food.

Have a great week
Johannes
