In conjunction with the School of Education and Human Services, it offers instruction leading to secondary teaching certification in biology, chemistry, history, mathematics, modern language and literature, music and physics. Its distinguished faculty includes world class scholars and researchers offering College students the opportunity to learn from some of the most prominent educators in their fields. One of the many hallmarks of the College is its commitment to quality education. Most classes are taught by experienced, full time faculty giving students the benefit of their expertise. Class sizes, particularly in upper level courses, are small enough to ensure effective learning.
Faculty are available outside of classes to assist and advise students.
At the College, students can explore a variety of classes to enable them to find the course of study best suited to their interest and skills. Faculty and professional academic and career advisers provide guidance to students. Every Oakland University student takes more than one-third of his or her classes within the College through its General Education classes. Among the unique offerings are courses in International Studies putting Oakland in the forefront. All students at Oakland must complete 124 credits in classes at the 100 level and above with 32 credits of those classes at the 300 level or above.
