Welcome to the College of Education
Make no mistake, our focus is straightforward: student success.
We challenge our students; we challenge convention; we seek fresh teaching techniques while honoring what’s working now. We guide each student in developing the knowledge, the know-how and the spirit to become a problem-solver as an educator, behavioral scientist, early childhood professional, coach or exercise scientist.
Our students in kinesiology, professional education, child and family studies, and psychological sciences receive a student-focused, quality education built around academic, cultural and service experiences. As higher education professionals, we are committed to delivering impactful educational experiences for our students.
Our programs provide students with the know-how for challenging, gratifying and socially significant careers. Our students become difference-makers in their profession.
