Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Access

An inclusive, diverse, equitable, and accessible (IDEA) community is a top priority at the University of Florida. In the College of Education, we value the importance of supporting all students through their journey to pursuing excellence and a more just society.

Black Student Advancement

Promoting Positive Change Through Research and Practice

COE Students

The College of Education programs offer students multiple opportunities to engage in course content and field experiences, in which topics aligned to inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility are emphasized as part of foundational knowledge of future teachers and other school personnel. Students are encouraged to engage in research projects and communities of practice related to major issues involving social justice in education. In addition, students share their research and practice through presentations in national and international conferences and through scholarly publications.

COE Faculty

Scholars in the College of Education conduct extensive research in the areas of policy and the historically underrepresented students, issues of equity and diversity, gender issues, ESOL/Bilingual education, multicultural education, special education, critical race theory, intersections of race and multiple contexts, mentoring, and multicultural counseling. Faculty research has been largely disseminated through scholarly journals across the US and internationally.

COE Initiatives and Programs

The College of Education provides access to resources for students at the college and university levels. Services include assistance with personal and professional development, outreach efforts with students in grades K-12, targeted recruitment and retention, and funding opportunities for minority students.

Holmes Scholars Program

Sponsored by the American Association for Colleges of Teacher Education (AACTE), the Holmes Scholars Program offers opportunities to doctoral students from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds who are pursuing careers in education.
