By the Numbers

We are proud of the latest endeavors and updates happening in the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä School of Education. We welcomed some of our largest cohorts of doctoral and undergraduate students in fall 2018, and our bachelor’s degree cohorts have nearly doubled with more than one-quarter of new students from historically underrepresented backgrounds.
