Educational Research: Faculty and Doctoral Student Research in Educational Inquiry, Measurement, and Evaluation

The Educational Inquiry, Measurement, and Evaluation PhD program encourages faculty and education PhD students to participate in educational research. Education PhD Students are assigned to work with faculty members on research during each semester of their enrollment in the program.

The culmination of their experience in the Education PhD program is a doctoral dissertation. The dissertation may focus on a substantive problem in the student’s content area of specialization or an unresolved methodological issue. In either case, the study should make a clear contribution to educational research and inquiry methods in education.

As students work toward their dissertation or other research projects, we invite them to share their research on this page. Faculty research and links to other educational research is also available through links on this page.
