Engineering Education Transformations Institute (EETI)


About the lab

The Engineering Education Transformations Institute (EETI) is an innovative, next-generation unit that seeks to transform engineering education through building social capital and shared capacity around the scholarship of teaching and learning in engineering.

EETI fuses a vibrant culture and discourse around educational innovation in UGA's College of Engineering with cutting-edge engineering education research to transform engineering programs, educational practices, and institutional cultures, locally and nationally.

The strength of our efforts, and of our community, is grounded in a shared commitment to celebrating diversity, embracing collaboration as our mode of operating, and valuing individual strengths and interests.
