Graduate Information

The mission of the Department of Childhood, Bilingual, and Special Education in the School of Education is to prepare teachers for effective classroom practice of diverse students in urban settings. Our work is driven by a commitment to social justice and beliefs that all children can learn; that education is necessary for all humans to realize their full potential; and that a quality education is a right not a privilege. Our goal is the development of knowledgeable, skilled teacher candidates who are well versed in research, theory, and practice.

Attaining an M.S.Ed. in any of the innovative programs in our department will help you gain New York State Certification.
