    “After taking classes in the BAES program I found my calling to education. The relationships I have developed with professors, advisors, and peers in the program helped me discover my strengths and passion.”

    – Jack McCarthy

    “What I like about this major is that it encourages students to not follow a specific path in order to obtain a degree, rather, through the variety of courses that this program provides. It is a way of exploring psychological foundations, learning methods, and education development in many fields.”
