Description

Computer Science, Engineering, and ISAT all emphasize a range of engaged pedagogies, such as POGIL (CS, BSISAT classes), Just In Time learning (Engineering Science classes), undergraduate research (capstone and senior projects in Engineering, BSISAT and IA) and flipped classrooms (a range of classes across all programs). Participating in academic competitions is another form of engaged learning embraced by units in CISE, especially Computer Science through APPS4VA, hackathons, and the CyberDefense competitions.
