Mathematics Education Leadership Program

Mathematics Education faculty cultivate the development of the next generation of mathematics education leaders and scholars. The faculty’s research activity allows advanced graduate students to participate in ongoing inquiry projects that allow them to apply their course work to real educational research issues. Alongside mathematics education faculty, PhD students learn first-hand how to conduct educational research by participating in study design, instrument development, data collection, data analysis, manuscript preparation, and research presentations. [Financial support for students has come from the externally funded projects in the Mathematics Education Center, including funds for graduate research assistants and summer positions, tuition support, and travel support to attend and present at research conferences. These presentations and publications are truly collaborative, with students having direct opportunities to write and present in national and international venues.]
