Division of Engineering Education

Established in 2007, USC Viterbi School's Division of Engineering Education addresses various issues surrounding engineering education that impact all departments and programs in the USC Viterbi School.

The organization is comprised of jointly-appointed faculty from across the School and elsewhere in the University who focus a significant portion of their academic activities on engineering education at the undergraduate, master's, and doctoral levels. This vibrant and passionate body of faculty members serve as liaisons between the school's academic departments, helping them implement innovative, school-wide initiatives to transform and enhance engineering education at USC.
