Welcome to The Teachers College
Welcome to The Teachers College at Emporia State University!
“Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today.” – Malcolm X
Undergraduate and graduate programs within The Teachers College are committed to immersing students in high-impact learning opportunities to prepare professionals who provide service to society, apply interdisciplinary scholarly knowledge, engage in effective practice, respond to uncertainty and change, rely on self-reflection, and belong to a professional community.
Programs within The Teachers College provide opportunities for students to experience hands-on training travel abroad, conduct research with faculty, travel to conferences, serve in leadership roles, and many others. These opportunities combined with coursework will not only enhance the lives of our students but allow our students to impact the lives of others.
The Teachers College enjoys a legacy of educational excellence as several programs are recognized with national accreditation. The college offers a Bachelor of Science in Education in both elementary and secondary education leading to licensure or endorsement through the Kansas State Department of Education, along with master's degrees programs and certificate options.
The Teachers College faculty and staff are committed to the fostering academic success and professional development of our students.
