College of Education

Ever had a teacher who was so good at their job they changed your life forever? Did it ever cross your mind that you could be one of these knowledgeable and influential people too? If you love the classroom, if learning new things speaks to you, and you can't get enough of sharing what you know, then you're more than likely cut out to be an awesome teacher! Education is essential no matter who you are, and becoming a gateway guide in helping students reach their fullest potential is both a noble and fun pursuit. It's also a fulfilling one. Every day, teachers see the impact they have on the next generation. It is a constant growing cycle for both students and teachers alike as students develop a strong knowledge base and teachers master how to share information in multiple ways that reach each pupil. There's nothing like the rewarding experience of seeing your students on Day 1 versus the last day of school.​

 

The College of Education at FU offers several subjects to specialize in for education. Teachers often discover they prefer a certain age group to teach, and we have programs for both elementary and secondary school levels. Students get to determine which is best suited for them. For secondary school education majors, we provide numerous choices to select from so our future teachers are prepared for the classroom. Whether you're interested in teaching mathematics or PE or art, we've got you covered at FU.

 

In 2020, we developed online and hybrid learning programs to cope with the Covid pandemic because education should never cease no matter the circumstances. Thanks to our emphasis on technology, we managed to transition smoothly at FU, and we're bringing what we've learned to you. Learn how to navigate technology's advancements and incorporate them to your advantage. We make sure our education students are prepared for whatever the future holds so they can always be effective teachers, reaching their students on deeper levels one class at a time.
