He teaches graduate and undergraduate courses on the history of American education and the philosophical foundations of education. Professor Terzian’s scholarship has focused on the history of the American high school; the history of science, gender, and education in the postwar era; and conflicts among different governing bodies in education in the latter half of the twentieth century. He has recently completed a book, Science Education and Citizenship: Fairs, Clubs, and Talent Searches for American Youth, 1918-1958, which will be published by Palgrave Macmillan in January 2013.
