Drawing on its rich tradition of excellence, the School of Education’s mission is to enhance learning and human development, in and out of classrooms, and across the life span. The School seeks to advance knowledge about the full spectrum of challenges in learning, development, behavior, and adaptation.
The School of Education brings multidisciplinary expertise to bear on policy and practice about the changing needs of students, professionals, and educational systems, locally, nationally, and across the globe. We view questions of theory, research, practice, and policy as complementary and interrelated, and from this perspective, seek to:
- Discover innovative research-based knowledge and solutions for the problems facing individuals, families, professionals, and educational systems;
- Prepare outstanding professionals for classrooms, schools, communities, higher education, and policy forums;
- Produce rigorous scholars to carry out the next generation of discovery and innovation; and
- Provide visionary leadership for educational policy and change, regionally, nationally, and internationally.
The School of Education offers over 30 different Master's, Certificate, and Doctoral degree programs. The school is organized into four departments: Educational Administration and Policy Studies, Educational and Counseling Psychology, Educational Theory and Practice, and Reading.
The School of Education offers an undergraduate minor in Educational Studies. Requirements for the minor are outlined in the Minors section of this bulletin.
