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.
