It is an exciting time here at the School of Education
as we welcome Dr. Isaac Prilleltensky as our new dean. We are proud
that the U.S. News & World Report has ranked the School of Education
among the nation’s best graduate programs and believe our
alumni are the foundation of the School of Education and a testament
to the quality of our education.
In a dynamic and multicultural community, the School
of Education is uniquely positioned to generate new knowledge and
better understanding of how diversity is redefining society and
to equip educators to teach in that world. Faculty in our three
departments- Teaching and Learning, Exercise and Sports Sciences
and Educational and Psychological Studies – are exceptional
scholars who complete successfully for external research funds.
Our students gain practical, hands-on experience in their field
of study, whether teaching or conducting research on multicultural
education, rehabilitating sports injuries, or counseling troubled
families. Our commitment to education, diversity, equity and service
to the community is unrivaled.
Support from our friends and donors have enabled us
to create new scholarships, conduct breakthrough research, and enhance
our facilities. Today, we have an unmatched opportunity to not only
to strengthen our academic offerings - but to also become a model
for the nation of successful teacher education.
