Administrative history
Education courses were offered at the university from the day its doors opened in 1926. Graduate courses in education were first offered in 1941. During the 1950’s the School of Education offered a four-year undergraduate program leading to a Bachelor of Education degree and a Master of Education degree. The School first offered a Doctor of Education and a Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1959. In 1963, the University’s Graduate School was formed and provided oversight for all the university’s various graduate programs. The School continued to expand, offering many additional undergraduate and graduate programs. In 2011, the School became the School of Education & Human Development to better capture the idea of the wide-ranging scope of the educational and developmental activities contained within the mission of the school.
