DBER Graduate Program

The Graduate Program in DBER enables faculty and students to collaborate from departments and colleges across NDSU to research and advance evidence-based teaching and learning of undergraduate STEM. Our program is:

Interdisciplinary. At NDSU, faculty and students collaborate from departments and colleges across NDSU to advance the teaching and learning of undergraduate STEM.

Learner-centered. Our PhD program prepares students for a variety of careers in academe and beyond. Students work with mentoring teams to develop the skills and content knowledge they need to be successful in any career they choose.

Transformative. Our DBER community is committed to changing the way we teach STEM, from developing curriculum for SCALE UP classroom spaces to exploring how ungrading can promote deep and meaningful learning. We want all students to feel included in our classrooms, and we strive to support every student in realizing their dreams in science and engineering.
