Doctoral Open House

Fall 2024 Open House 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 two virtual open house events: Wednesday, October 30, 6:00-7:30 p.m. ET and Thursday, October 31, 8:30-10:00 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.

An application fee waiver for Fall 2025 admission to the ENGE PhD program will be available to participants who attend either VT ENGE Open House Event. 

Applicants to the ENGE PhD program who are offered admission for Fall 2025 will be eligible for a travel grant to visit campus during Spring 2025.
