Engineering Engineering Education (E3) Workshop
Bucknell’s Engineering Engineering Education (E3) Workshop focuses on helping fellow engineering educators be as effective in the classroom as possible. All are welcome, no matter what type of engineer, phase of career or type of faculty line.
At this workshop, attendees will receive personal, individualized coaching to develop instructional plans. Arrive at the workshop with an assignment, class project or overall course approach to revise; leave with a customized actionable plan grounded in educational literature and best practices.
Participants will develop a plan to execute changes in a target class or project to improve or increase:
- Student learning
- Student engagement
- Student motivation
- Instructor satisfaction
- Instructor work-life balance
Attendees will leave the workshop with a general understanding of research-based approaches to teaching engineering, including active, collaborative and problem-based learning. The workshop will also enhance connections and contacts with facilitators and with peers working on similar teaching innovations.
Our facilitators are experienced instructors who are ASEE Fellows, teaching award winners, NSF educational research award recipients, department chairs and engineering education researchers. They have more than 150 combined years of experience teaching high-achieving undergraduate engineering students across many disciplines.
This workshop is held on campus at Bucknell University. Dates for 2026 are July 13-15. Registration cost is $750 (early, through May 31) or $1,100 (regular). Registration is open through June 30.
Information
This workshop didn't just provide me with the evidence-based tools and approaches I need to be an engaging and effective educator, but provided ample successful examples and coached me through implementing them into a module of one of my courses. Compared to the workshops and seminars I've attended previously, this was by far the best.
