Held in conjunction with the 11th Regional Conference in Engineering Education (RCEE), Research in Higher Education (RHEd), and the 7th International Innovative Practices in Higher Education Expo (I-PHEX), REES 2025 will be a great opportunity to engage with global and regional perspectives to share meaningful & latest research trends and discuss innovative practices shaping the future of engineering education.

REES is the biennial symposium of the Research in Engineering Education Network (REEN), an international community of scholars interested in conducting high-quality work and advancing the field of engineering education research. REES aims to provide an independent, international and inclusive forum to advance scholarly discourse on research in engineering education

REES 2025 aims to transform engineering education by breaking the boundaries of research and practice to make engineering education more dynamic, relevant, and responsive to the needs of learners and society. We foster impactful dialogue that breaks traditional boundaries across geography, culture, and discipline in pursuit of meaningful advancement of engineering education.

REES 2025 will be conducted face-to-face with key programs in hybrid mode and selected online sessions for a flexible and engaging experience. We welcome submissions that address diverse aspects of engineering education that align with the conference theme.
