We value academic research in all five of our nationally ranked departments: curriculum and instruction, educational administration, educational psychology, special education, and kinesiology and health education. For six consecutive years, the college has been ranked number one nationally in research expenditures, with a total of $61 million, by U.S. News & World Report. Book value of the college’s endowment is around $31 million (market value is about $51 million), with $13 million in faculty, $12 million in student and $6 million in program endowments. Graduate and undergraduate students learn from the best. Our research-based programs train education professionals to bring vision and leadership to teaching and learning. Partnerships with leading research centers and community practitioners prepare students for successful careers as teachers, physical therapists, coaches, professors and scientists.
