School of Education
Our Mission Statement
The mission of the School of Education (SOE) is to improve education, early childhood through older adulthood, in all educational settings. This mission is to be accomplished through the education of professional personnel, including teachers, counselors, librarians, administrators, and allied professionals; through research, demonstration, and other creative activities intended to increase our knowledge about the most effective educational practices; and through competent and ethical professional services based on the best educational practices. Believing that our mission can be achieved through productive interaction among teaching, service, and research, the School seeks:
- To promote scholarly inquiry in all the ways it can occur in order to develop knowledge fundamental to educational theory and policies and to improve educational practices;
- To provide exemplary pre-service teacher education programs that can serve as teaching/learning models for the state and nation;
- To provide the state, region, and nation graduate programs of distinction for professional personnel in public and private schools, libraries, hospitals, mental health agencies, institutions of higher education, business and industry, and other groups;
- To provide professional service and leadership to local, state, national, and international education agencies and institutions, and to the public.
