Doctoral Open House

Fall 2025 Open Houses for Prospective Ph.D. Students

Thank you for your interest in the Engineering Education Program at Virginia Tech!  Choosing a graduate program is an important decision.  We are delighted that Virginia Tech is among your list of possibilities. Virginia Tech's Ph.D. program in engineering education seeks to prepare students for successful careers in research, academia, and industry by offering a program that is balanced between research and real world application.

To help you gather information about our program, we will be hosting three virtual open house events: Tuesday October 21, 6:00-7:15 p.m. ET, Monday October 27, 6-7:30pm ET and Tuesday, November 11, 8:30-9:45 a.m. ET. 

Open house attendees will have the opportunity to learn about our program and the faculty and students who make up our close community. Each open house session will feature an overview of the Engineering Education Ph.D. and current areas of research in the department, with an opportunity for discussion with faculty and current students.

Applicants to the ENGE PhD program who are offered admission for Fall 2026 will be eligible for a travel grant to visit campus during Spring 2026.
