Panel - integrating education, research, and outreach: exemplars from the NSF distinguished scholars program

Engineering education is reaching beyond the traditional bounds of teaching engineering to engineering students. As engineering pervades everyone´s life, it is becoming increasingly important to teach engineering to non-engineers, to bring engineers and non-engineers together in dialogs around technological topics, to integrate teaching and cutting-edge research, to link engineering students and faculty across national boundaries in new integrated research and educational environments, and to bring engineering into pre-college settings. This panel explores the approaches seven NSF Distinguished Teaching Scholars have taken to integrating their work across the dimensions of education, research, and K-12 outreach. These projects serve as exemplars for how we can stretch the boundaries of engineering education practice
