MBU Professor Appointed to International Committee

September 21, 2006

Dr. Mark Engelhardt, education site coordinator at MBU’s Troy/Wentzville Extension Site and associate professor of education, has been appointed to the first-ever international advisory committee on membership retention and recruitment strategies for Phi Delta Kappa International.

Engelhardt, a former educator and administrator at various St. Louis-area school districts, has taught in MBU’s education division since 1999. Since then, MBU has launched a highly successful Master of Science in Education program with concentrations in counselor education, classroom teaching and education administration. In 2004, the education division attained approval from the National Council of Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE).

PDK, the professional association in education, strives to prepare the next generation of educators as well as to serve practicing teachers, administrators, college educators, and those concerned about public education through a wide range of innovative initiatives based on visionary leadership, relevant research, and dedicated service.
