The Minnesota Interdisciplinary Training in Education Research (MITER) Program is now recruiting trainees for a new doctoral interdisciplinary training program in experimental research methodology and cognitive sciences as applied to educational issues, including standards-based assessment, continuous monitoring of student progress, experimental and quasi-experimental design, longitudinal studies, theory of cognition, and data-gathering methods in cognitive neuroscience, psycholinguistics, higher-order thinking and learning.

Trainees will also choose research projects in major on-campus research centers such as the Brain Sciences Center, the Center for Cognitive Sciences, National Center on Educational Outcomes, the Research Institute on Progress Monitoring, and the Roy Wilkins Center; off-campus field sites such as the Minnesota Department of Education, the urban and non-urban public schools; and American Guidance Services, Inc. (AGS Publishing). An important part of the recruiting process will be faculty nominations of prospective fellows. If you have students that might be interested, please direct them to the MITER program web site (http://education.umn.edu/MITER); or they can contact us directly.
