Welcome Parents!

Mizzou's College of Education helps students obtain teacher certification, offers graduate education and advances the careers of professionals in education. Current students and alumni agree — the college offers an environment of learning and discovery for researchers and developing teachers.

Founded in 1868, the college is celebrating 140 years of inspiring the enterprise of learning and discovery in 2008. Many of the college's 3,395 students are on MU's campus, but an increasing number of graduate students are located across the country taking advantage of various distance learning options.

Community members and researchers tap into the college's research centers and outreach services to improve their communities and schools.
