Pre-University Education

The IEEE and the IEEE Educational Activities Board are committed to providing quality educational resources for educators, parents, students, IEEE volunteers, and the public.

Teacher In-Service Program

The Teacher In-Service Program features lesson plans that are aligned with education standards and can easily be used in the classroom.

Career Preparation

Career preparation information is available for educators, school counselors and students.

Engineer and Educator Resources

The “Train the Trainer" Model for Pre-University Engineering Outreach Programs:

provides methods on how engineers can make a difference and be an effective resource for educators in local schools and school systems
encourages collaboration and sharing between engineers and educators
encourages educators to explore how engineers benefit science, mathematics, and technology education
provides engineers with tips and strategies on how to work efficiently with pre-university educators and student

TryEngineering.org

The IEEE and IBM have created a new Web site that combines information on engineering careers with interactive activities.

Intended for pre-university students, parents, teachers, school counselors, and the general public, TryEngineering.org lets visitors explore how to prepare for an engineering career, ask experts engineering-related questions, play interactive games, and more.

Learn more, or visit the site at www.tryengineering.org.

TryNano.org

IEEE has launched TryNano.org, a resource for anyone interested in learning about Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. Nanoscience and Nanotechnology are technical fields that focus on matter at the nanoscale - dimensions that are roughly 1 to 100 nanometers (1nm = 10^-9m).

At TryNano.org you can explore nanomaterals, meet nano experts, learn about organizations on the cutting edge, find universities offering degrees in nanotechnology, and download lesson plans.
