Partners & Sponsors
Founding Partners
Engineer Your World is a product of the UTeachEngineering project at The University of Texas at Austin. Originally funded by the National Science Foundation’s Math and Science Partnership program, UTeachEngineering has been a leading innovator in the field of secondary engineering education since 2008. UTeachEngineering began as a collaborative initiative of the Cockrell School of Engineering and the nationally recognized UTeach program, itself a joint effort of the College of Natural Sciences and the College of Education.
Sponsors
Much of the increasing demand for the program is based on word-of-mouth from teachers and principals, but the rapid growth of the program would not have been possible without essential financial support from sponsors to further develop the program and offset startup costs for new schools.
A $2M grant from The University of Texas System enabled expansion of dual-enrollment opportunities at multiple UT System institutions and helped bring the engineering courses to even more Texas schools.
Funding from the AT&T Foundation helped 13 new schools adopt the program in 2017-18.
