Through collaborative action, teaching, and research, the School of Education at Brooklyn College develops the student's capacity to create socially just, intellectually vital, aesthetically rich, and compassionate communities that value equity and excellence, access and rigor. Our programs are designed in cooperation with the liberal arts and sciences faculties of Brooklyn College and in consultation with local schools in order to provide our students with the opportunity to develop the knowledge, proficiencies, and understanding needed to work with New York City's racially, ethnically, and linguistically diverse populations. We offer bachelor of arts degrees for teachers of early childhood, childhood, special subjects and adolescence education, dual certification for early childhood/early childhood special education, and an extension of childhood education in bilingual education (Spanish only). We believe that teaching is an art that incorporates self-reflection and a willingness to try new ideas, practices, and technologies and, further, that teaching should focus on the individual learner's needs while promoting growth. The department's work is shaped by scholarship and animated by the desire to help our students meet the highest standards of professional competence. Collaboration, reflective practice, and a commitment to social justice and diversity guide the teaching, field placement decisions, and the research and scholarship of faculty and students in the School of Education. The School of Education prepares teachers, administrators, counselors, and school psychologists to serve, lead, and thrive in the schools and agencies of this city and beyond. Students who wish to pursue graduate studies may apply to the master's and doctoral degree programs offered by or in conjunction with this department.
