Welcome to the Designing Education Lab

The Designing Education Lab (DEL), led by Professor Sheri Sheppard, investigates a broad range of engineering education topics, from the persistence of students and alumni in engineering fields to the impact of exposure to entrepreneurship on engineering students' career interests. DEL researchers are engaged in national and international collaborations with colleagues within and outside of engineering.

Our mission is to change the world by transforming engineering education into a more accessible and equitable space in a way that fosters personal growth.
