2 TWO PATHS PHD Mechanical Engineering (Engineering Education Concentration) The engineering education concentration is interdisciplinary and will combine research in engineering with research in education. The concentration provides students with an opportunity to explore pedagogy, methodology, curriculum and instruction and apply it to engineering. PHD Curriculum and Instruction (Engineering Education Concentration) The concentration in engineering education within the Ph.D. in curriculum and instruction provides opportunities for interdisciplinary research in the teaching and learning of engineering, pre-k to college, by integrating research methods in learning theory, curriculum development, elopment assessment, evaluation ation and education with a particular understanding of engineering content and practice in a variety of contexts.

7 PHD PROGRAMS IN ENGINEERING EDUCATION IN INDIA Doctoral Programs in Engineering Education are offered in the four NITTTRs ( National Institutes of Technical Teachers Training Institutes ) at Bhopal(West zone), Chandigarh(North zone), Chennai(South zone ), and Kolkata(East zone). The candidates are essentially from Engineering Colleges, Polytechnics, NITTTRs and Industry. The Guides are from the host NITTTRs. The degrees are conferred by a neighboring University.
