I2E2: Institute for Innovation in Engineering Education Olin College

The Programs of I2E2

Summer Institutes

I2E2 held its inaugural summer institute for faculty June 28 - July 2, 2010. In summer 2011, we hosted our program Meeting the Needs of the 21st Century: Designing for Student Engagement from June 13-17, 2011. In summer 2012, we expanded our offerings to include two new short programs—developed jointly with our colleagues at ThreeJoy Consulting—in addition to our flagship week-long institute.

Curricular Innovation Co-Design Partnerships

Olin forms partnerships with academic institutions and visionary private and public sector organizations to nurture campus innovation activities.

Catalyzing Innovative Educational Practices Workshops and Consultations

I2E2 runs targeted programs and provides consultation services for institutions facing particular challenges, including on-location facilitation and coaching.

Innovative Personnel Exchanges

Fellowships and sabbatical visits to Olin provide an opportunity for others to collaborate, learn, co-teach and share with us.

Shorter-term opportunities exist for visitors to learn about what we do at Olin and how our programs might be adapted/adopted elsewhere.

Study of Educational Innovation

I2E2 studies best practices at Olin and elsewhere.
