Cheryl Carrico's work focuses on engineering education, particularly how students—especially middle and high schoolers in rural and Appalachian communities—develop interest in and pathways toward engineering careers. Her research examines career motivation, teacher and counselor perceptions of engineering, and programs that connect K-12 classrooms with industry and academic partners. She has also contributed to work on faculty development for teaching metacognitive ('skillful') learning strategies to engineering students.
Publication output was variable over the last decade, peaking in 2020 with 18 outputs, dropping sharply in 2021-2023, and rebounding somewhat in 2024, with a lower recent 5-year average of about 2.2 publications per year.
