Biography
Dr. Greg J. Strimel is an assistant professor of engineering technology teacher education in the Department of Technology Leadership & Innovation at Purdue University. Within this program he educates pre-service teachers on the processes of developing curriculum and maintaining learning facilities. Additionally, he coordinates the Design & Innovation minor program and serves as an advisor to the Technology and Engineering Education Collegiate Association, a study abroad leader, and a national event coordinator for the Testing Engineering Aptitude in Mathematics & Science organization. Strimel’s scholarly efforts are focused on increasing student design capabilities and helping to ensure that every student has the opportunity to act, think, and learn like an engineer. More specifically, his research is focused on enhancing the appropriately scaffolded teaching of P-12 engineering by studying engineering design-based instructional interventions and engineering design cognition. Through these efforts, he continues to strive toward improving the national landscape of STEM education.
Strimel received a B.S. and M.Ed. in Technology Education from California University of Pennsylvania and a Ph.D. in Occupational and Technical Studies from Old Dominion University. Previously, he was a teaching assistant professor of engineering fundamentals at West Virginia University where he additionally served as the director of K-12 initiatives. Strimel also worked as a high school career/technology department chair and teacher in Howard County Maryland. Furthermore, he served as an infantryman in the U.S. Army and is a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Strimel has been recognized as a New Technology & Engineering Teacher of the Year, ITEEA Emerging Leader and 21st Century Fellow, and recipient of the 2018 Gerhard Salinger Award for enhancing integrative STEM Education. Also, based on his work with regional manufacturing talent pipelines, he was awarded the Purdue Polytechnic Outstanding Faculty in Engagement Award as well as the John P. Lisack Early Career Engagement Award.

Industry Engagement:
- Co-Director, Advancing Excellence in P-12 Engineering Education Project
-
project is an ongoing research venture to promote collaboration across the engineering and education community, to pursue a vision and direction for P-12 Engineering Education; and second, to develop a coherent and dynamic content framework for scaffolding the teaching and learning of engineering and design at the high school level. There has been considerable change in education, specifically in response to STEM education and the recent focus of engineering for the Next Generation Science Standards. Over the years, Technology Education has gone through reform, as well. Subsequently, the goal of the AEEE project is to afford selected leaders, concerned about technology education and engineering at the P-12 level, a platform to present their views on future directions for the field through a series of action-oriented symposia and conduct research on the learning of engineering within primary and secondary schools.
