The College of Education and Behavioral Sciences prepares students through applied learning opportunities including experiences in classrooms, research laboratories, clinics, our communities, and across the globe.

The mission of the College of Education and Behavioral Sciences (CEBS) is to empower individuals to lead and serve through academic and inquiry-based experiences representative of the educational, behavioral, and leadership needs of our global society.
