About UF College of Education
The College of Education at the University of Florida, founded in 1906, has consistently been ranked No. 1 and No. 2 in the nation in Online Graduate Education for the last five years and, overall, is ranked 12th nationally among public graduate colleges of education (U.S. News & World Report). Two of the College’s academic programs occupy top-20 spots in the U.S. News rankings: Counselor Education (2nd) and Special Education (5th). Our Teachers, Schools and Society Ed.D. in Curriculum and Instruction was named as the 2020 Program of the Year by the Carnegie Project on the Education Doctorate (CPED). The College’s educator preparation programs have been continuously accredited by NCATE and CAEP since 1954. However, teaching is just one of several areas of study from which UF education students can choose. More than 3000 students are enrolled on campus and online in 29 bachelor’s and advanced degree programs and concentration areas, within nine academic specialties: K-12 Curriculum and Instruction • Counseling and Counselor Education • Early Childhood Education • Educational Leadership • Higher Education Administration • Research and Evaluation Methods • School Psychology • Special Education • Student Personnel in Higher Education.
The college is immersed in three of UF’s designated priority research areas in UF’s state-funded Preeminence initiative—early childhood studies, precision learning, and analysis of learning analytics. The college has 108 full-time faculty members with distinguished records in teaching, research and service. Faculty researchers last year held more than $107.5 Million worth in awards supporting studies and projects addressing education’s most critical issues. Cutting-edge interdisciplinary research and public scholarship—often conducted in partnership with other UF colleges, school districts and communities across the state and nation—are yielding powerful learning systems and models that are helping to transform education in today’s changing world, starting with our youngest learners. To sustain the college’s innovative edge deep into the 21st century, heightened emphasis on emerging technologies, advanced graduate studies and interdisciplinary research will effectively prepare tomorrow’s leaders in all education disciplines.
