The School of Education believes in giving our students the
competitive edge in the field of education by exposing them to a
global environment and having a well-rounded perspective of the
field of pedagogy.
While studying abroad you will be able to experience firsthand how
another country’s education system instructs their students and
this will give you a broader perspective on education. As an
education major there are multiple opportunities for you to explore
the education system in other countries.
Learning in an international environment enhances a student’s
intellect to become an effective educator. As an educator we
hold a responsibility to the students we teach to be open minded
and well rounded individuals. Our students wish to have teachers
with life experience and knowledge not just of the subject that
they are teaching, but also of what is going on in our growing
global community. Being able to relate global events and history in
the classroom is essential in providing our students with a broad
knowledge of how things work and understanding different cultures
and ideas.
