What do we want to accomplish in the CID? Currently, students can pursue their interests in mathematics education in three different programs, in three different departments, in two colleges. We are designing a new cross-college doctoral program in Mathematics Education that will build on the strengths of our three existing programs while providing an intensive focus on mathematics education. The program will be located in the Division of Science and Mathematics Education (DSME).

What are we doing? We have formed a Mathematics Education Faculty Group and the group has approved a proposal for our new program. The proposal is currently being reviewed by campus departments. We anticipate that we will be able to recruit students to the new program for the 2006/7 academic year. Click here to read about our innovation. We are created structured opportunities for students to engage in research throughout the doctoral program.
