Students in the division spend a significant amount of time working with youngsters in public, private, and parochial schools throughout Greater Michiana. However, these same students also have the opportunity to apply for an international scholarship for overseas study and to participate in Global Education Workshops. In order to meet this two-fold mission, Division of Education faculty maintain high standards for all students of education. It is our belief that the successful teacher, counselor, or administrator must master both a significant body of content knowledge, as well as demonstrate myriad effective teaching skills. Teacher education programs offer a balance of broad liberal arts education and specialized knowledge in professional education and concentrated areas.
Students choose from a variety of programs to fulfill their practical training requirements.
In closing, I urge you to browse this World-Wide Web location. Here you will find evidence of faculty dedicated to providing a background in research on learning and methods of instruction which prepare teachers and other educational professionals to serve as facilitators of active, life-long, learning. Most of all, it is my hope that you will find some segment of our programmatic activities that interest you enough to visit our campus.
