. One flyer, labeled “Get Your PhD For Free,” laid out funding options for PhD studentsand ways to obtain them. We were surprised to learn how many undergraduate students were notaware of the funding that comes with getting a PhD in an engineering discipline, and this flyergenerated great interest. All newly developed materials were utilized in each component of theoverall strategy, and in other forms of advertisement commonly utilized across higher education(such as ASEE First Bell).Digital MarketingAs marketing of services through digital technologies continues to show success in acceleratingproduct value to consumers (i.e. the value of a particular educational program to prospectivestudents), we enlisted the help of a world-renowned

Czarena Crofcheck and Eduardo Santillan-Jimenez, performing her research in the laboratories of UK CAER. Julia’s research focuses on the development of methods for the depolymerization of lignin, this being a main constituent of biomass. In so doing, Julia’s work aims to convert this largely waste material into a sustainable source of chemicals and fuels, thereby significantly improving the economics of biorefineries. Her graduate studies and research are currently supported by the NSF LSAMP Bridge to Doctorate Fellowship.Keren Mabisi, University of Cincinnati Keren

In fact, the main accrediting board for the Engineeringfield—the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)—listed the students’“ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences” (ABET, 2017) as one of its maincriteria for institutions seeking accreditation.

developers invariably envision a particular client group to serve as target forthe program that they are developing. Typically, their view of this group is one characterized bya set of characteristics that include assumptions of need, student goals, age and experience, andlocation among others. Of course, other important factors are also considered during newprogram design. These include institutional and originating department missions, geographicregion served, perceptions of need, advisory council input, leadership directions and more.In prior papers, delivered at the 2016[5] and 2019[6] ASEE conferences the authors addressedthe development process for the recently approved Doctor of Technology (DTech) offered by thePolytechnic Institute at Purdue

However, in order to create a program that would be the signature of the departmentand the center of its identity, the design team decided to design a program from the ground up,instead.Having made that decision, the committee members looked to the research literature to find asystem for designing such a program. While graduate programs in engineering education areincreasing in number, they are still relatively few. Worldwide, there are twenty-nine institutionsthat specifically offer engineering/STEM education doctoral programs (ASEE-SD and CELT,2019). As such, there is not a large body of established curricula to inform what and how PhDstudents in engineering education are taught.Our own department of engineering
