About Us

Welcome to the Division of Education! We offer on-campus and synchronous online programs in a diverse range of subjects in education at the undergraduate and graduate level. With offerings in traditional P-12 education, such as elementary education, alternate route secondary education, school counseling, and educational leadership, we can provide a wide range of opportunities for anyone interested in educating our children and adolescents!  Additionally, we offer programs in community college education, clinical mental health and rehabilitation counseling, educational design, school psychology and combined health services psychology!

Our programs are grounded in each respective discipline’s essential knowledge, best practices, relevant research, and clinical training. Teaching is of utmost importance to faculty within the Division of Education, and we are committed to excellence in our own teaching. Students are provided with support systems to learn both in the classroom and out in the field where they will be practicing. Our faculty are well-known within our state and are recognized at the national and international level within their respective fields.
