Education Degree Programs
We offer high-quality programs that promote innovative instruction and communication skills that support students becoming leaders in their fields.
At Colorado State University, our CEP faculty teach and model education best practices. Our program is built on partnerships with local school districts. Our future teachers gain experience in real schools with real students.
The CSU STEM Center helps you learn to apply creative interdisciplinary research to solve social problems. Take the opportunity to apply advanced technology and integrated problem-solving skills in real-world situations.
Our program prepares you to be a high-qualified teacher, superintendent, principal, or another kind of leader in education. You gain skills to direct educational programs, become a facilitator of educational change, and implement new approaches to solving the problems confronting education.
The partnership established between CSU and the Poudre School District offers our licensure students the opportunity to work in real classrooms with PK-12 students, ensuring they are highly prepared to enter the profession. This partnership also benefits PK-12 teachers and students, providing extra help in district classrooms and strong applicants to open teaching positions.
We hope you will stay connected with your alma mater, the School of Education, and your fellow students. The connections you made – and those you rekindle – are an important part of what makes your CSU experience unique and meaningful.
