The University of Akron’s College of Education is a community of professionals whose purpose is to provide leadership for community well-being through standard-setting programs that enhance teaching, learning, and human development; research and inquiry; and outreach. We develop ourselves and others through continuous improvement and through a commitment to these core components of professional practice and scholarship: knowledge, technology, diversity, and ethics.

The aim of the College of Education is to meet the comprehensive charge of our mission through initial and advanced teacher education programs as well as programs in administration, counseling, technical education, higher education, sport and exercise science, athletic training for sports medicine, community health, and several teacher education programs housed outside the College. Programs include a balanced offering of a foundation in general education, intensive study in the content area, and those professional courses and other learning experiences which attempt to combine theory and practice.

The education program and courses presented in the bulletin reflect the most current courses and program offerings. For further information about specific programs and requirements, contact the Office of Student Services Advisement Office, (330) 972-6970
