School of Education

Providing professional, skilled, and caring teachers for all learners.

Our teacher education program is dependent upon and supported by the University mission and general education curriculum. We conceptualize our program in three categories: commitment, candidate, and curriculum. Simply stated, our commitment, our overriding goal, is to help K-12 students learn. Our candidates are reflective decision-makers with extensive professional knowledge and skills, and appropriate dispositions. Our curriculum, designed to develop candidates who can meet the commitment of K-12 student learning, has the three important themes of diversity, technology, and collaboration.

The University of Evansville's Core Purpose, "Provide life-transforming educational experiences that prepare students to engage the world as informed, ethical, and productive citizens" provides a robust foundation for preparing teachers for contemporary classrooms.
