Biography

Adam Carberry is an associate professor in The Polytechnic School within Arizona State University’s Fulton Schools of Engineering. He currently teaches use-inspired design courses, primarily the first semester, second-year course EGR 201, utilizing a project-based approach. His primary areas of expertise and interest within the broad discipline of engineering education include: 1) developing new classroom innovations and assessment techniques (e.g., alternative pedagogies, reflection, and grading systems), and 2) identifying new ways to empirically understand how engineering students and educators learn (e.g., assessments of personal beliefs, expectations, values, risk-taking, and mindsets). He is also currently collaborating with ASU colleagues to better understand faculty pedagogical risk-taking and the broad construct of entrepreneurial mindset.

Prior to coming to ASU, he briefly worked at Sikorsky Aircraft before joining the Tufts’ Center for Engineering Education and Outreach. There he managed of the Student Teacher Outreach Mentorship Program (STOMP) where he received the Tufts University Presidential Award for Citizenship and Public Service. He has faciliated and lead LEGO-based outreach opportunities for K-12 teachers, students, and FLL coaches since 2005 all around the world; most recently he has participated in the ASU Barrett Summer Scholars program receiving the Outstanding Service Award in 2015 and 2016. He has served in many volunteer roles through the American Society for Engineering Education and is currently the chair of the Research in Engineering Education Network (REEN) governing board.
